We're running Solaris 8. My experience shows nothing in the Send-Q:
Local Address Remote Address Swind Send-Q Rwind Recv-Q
State
-------------------- -------------------- ----- ------ ----- ------
-------
192.168.10.2.domain 192.168.10.2.44440 32768 0 32768 0
CLOSE_WAIT
192.168.10.2.domain 192.168.10.2.44469 32768 0 32768 0
CLOSE_WAIT
Strangely, I can duplicate (create more of) the CLOSE_WAITs by
telnet-ing to our DNS servers VIP on port 53 and then '^]' escaping
out of it and close. I do this and on the 9th time you'll be unable
to connect on 53 as the CLOSE_WAIT's make named unresponsive.
