Hi,
   My original question asked about clearing connections left open
on port 119 after killing news.

   Most replies said that the only solution was to reboot (which is
what was done...:(

   A few people said I killed news incorrectly, causing the half open
connections. Maybe, but I doubt it, as always use the same script
to kill all nntplinks, innxmits, and nnrpd's, and have never had this
problem before.

   Finally, someone suggested trying pmadm/sacadm to disable/enable
the service. I'll look into this if it happens again...

   Thanks to the following who replied:
