Well, I won't compare an unknown Gnome / X weird problem with my present
Freenet issue.

Please note the following anyway:

1) My server looks really healthy, indeed, and has an uptime of a month or so.
It serves a lot of processes without ever any problem. It's a production
machine, rather stable. There's no X nor no Gnome running on it ;-)

2) Killing the Freenet server process immediately released the 3 hung
"CLOSE_WAIT" tcp connections that had stayed hung for 3 days. They immediately
disappeared from netstat.

3) Killing the Freenet server process also freed immediately 9 megabytes from
my .freenet data storage directory (???). It was not any recent or ongoing
data transfer, as my server wasn't processing any Freenet insert or request at
the time I killed it, and hadn't been for a while.

4) Restarting the Freener server then works plain good. But maybe some sockets
may hang again in the future?

Go figure...

Regards.

Michel.
