I'm facing a problem running mysql on red hat 6.2.

  # uname -a
  Linux dummy2.ezee 2.2.14-12 #1 Tue Apr 25 13:04:07 EDT 2000
i686 unknown

The problem is that after running the mysql server for a while,
clients stop getting connections.  netstat returns the
following:

  # netstat -a | grep -E 'mysql.*TIME_WAIT' | wc -l
  14605

And those sockets are not getting closed.  Not after waiting
for
120 secs.  Not even 120 minutes!  I think the problem is not
with mysql but somewhere else.  There are only 67 mysql
processes running, so I guess the processes that were using
these sockets are probably dead already (assuming mysql forks
for every connection).

No clue.  How do I free these port numbers so that other
sockets
can be bound to these ports?  Or have I got it totally wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Manish
