Sorry, fat fingers.
TcpTimedWaitDelay is the value that should help you close those sockets faster. I have to run to a meeting but will try to send more info later.

Last week I ran into an issue where (what I think was..) some security
scans on my network for TCP traffic tied up a certain number of ports on
my W2k3 master and some NBU processes were unable to interact reliably.
Four levels of support were unable to suitably explain the problem to
me, and all we ended up doing was throwing in a TCP wait delay into the
registry, which "worked" with middling success. The issue has since
disappeared (mysteriously) - as I assume whatever activity that was
happening over those couple of days has since stopped.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] CLOSE_WAIT
Hi All
Scenario :
Master server Solaris 8
Media server windows 2000
Over the past weekend we encountered a whole bunch of 219's on jobs
using a particular media server, a netstat on the media server provided
the below snapshot. The CLOSE_WAIT entries seemed to hang around for
ages, additionally hogging sockets. On the master server everything was
plodding along as usual.
Q1. can anyone explain why these sockets on the media server do not
close fully and hang around for quite sometime ? If indeed the master
server has not
finalised comms, what (on the master) would be keeping the socket
open between the two.
Q2. Does anyone know the default setting for the maximum number of
simultaneous tcp connections on windows 2000?
Q3. If I was to add the registry key to tcp parameters
"TcpNumConnections" , what guidelines could I follow to determine the
number of connections ?
Q4. Not so long ago on the same windows media server I added the
registry key to tcp parameters "TcpTimedWaitDelay" in order to clear
TIME_WAIT more
quickly. Are there any known issues with windows 2000 and tcp
connections that I'm not aware off ?
Much appreciated
David Clooney
