Ok, yes - I can reproduce this now. I scanned the new host I setup with our 
security scanning software.

This generated a number of sshd caught in 'urdlck' - and a large number of 
sockets that end up as 'CLOSE_WAIT' I'm guessing given time these will 
finally move to 'CLOSED' (it was scanned hours ago and there's still 50+ in 
CLOSE_WAIT state).

As I said originally this can't be the only cause - but it is a cause.

So now I can reproduce it - what next?

Regards,

-Karl
