Most of the FTP's seem to be in sbwait. They hang around indefinatly, or so it seems, they just seem to accumulate. I don't know what client the remote end is using, its a fairly public server. Doesn't ftp timeout though? I mean, can someone just leave an ftp server running? I thought it timed out and closed after 900 seconds?
