You might glean some insight from the TCP socket state (on the FreeBSD side, use 'netstat -A' to print the PCB address and gdb to dump the contents but I'm not sure how to get this data out of OpenVMS). The '-C' and '-W' options to tcpdump will help. > Shouldn't this get torn down by a keepalive at some point? It has been >sitting for 9 hours or so at this point... On FreeBSD, keepalives are off by default. You change change the default with sysctl net.inet.tcp.always_keepalive but I think that only affects new connections. --=20 Peter Jeremy Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour. --ftEhullJWpWg/VHq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAklaAigACgkQ/opHv/APuIdKeACfTKuubSMlE+9zf2KyW7iY4zSR +20An3ED9Dyo94ia2/SSVLLwdwB5QsEL =Euu8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ftEhullJWpWg/VHq--
