Description ae 2000-07-31 12:45:34 UTC

if /etc/inetd.conf turns on the time/tcp service,
then connections are left in a CLOSE_WAIT state.

For me, a handful of Solaris and Linux clients will
cause the server's inetd to reach its fd limit
in a few days.  

RHL 6.2, kernel-2.2.14-12 (686, smp),  inetd-0.16-4
