Hello Davide,
Weel, it seems to be an idiosncrazy in ipfw/freebsd on my side, when
you limit simultaneous connections. It then sort of never gets past
the FIN_WAIT_2 state, waiting for something from the remote side,
which either never gets returned, or gets re-throttled by the ipfw
rules. I actually want to try and see if I can reshuffle the rules
slightly so that the flow changes, and see if I still get the same
problem...
The problem is definitely in the firewalling, as the FIN_WAIT_2's
dissapear when reloading the firewall rules...
I currently have some more in the funny wait state:
Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 196.207.45.253
Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 196.209.32.160
Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 202.156.166.221
Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 68.42.173.133
Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 70.114.137.133
Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 85.250.39.162

Wed Apr 26 10:30:00 2006 1 88.155.148.150
(Logfile I append every 10 minutes with summary of FIN_WAIT_2
states...)
