Dead sockets in Solaris? 
Author Message
 Dead sockets in Solaris?

Hi,

  When a socket is abnormally terminated in Solaris, what job
goes through and cleans it up?  It's apparently a timed job, but where is
the code for this process actually stored?  Is it in the OS, TCP daemon,
or something else? cron?  Thanks!

It's in the networking code of the OS which actually manages the objects
that represent TCP connections and embody connection states, timers,
queues and other elements.

But you should ask this in a Solaris newsgroup, not in
a C language newsgroup.

That is a question that the C language cannot answer - you'll need to ask
the Solaris experts. Try a newsgroup such as comp.unix.solaris.
