Dave,
   In our implementation, a connection can transition to the established
state for a particular Listener without having yet been accepted
by the Listener.  So my question is, does this MIB object count allthose
connections that have transitioned to the established state for a Listener
or,
those connections in established state that have also been accepted by
that Listener.
