KeepAlive On

KeepAliveTimeout 15



The strange thing (for me) is:

tcpdump output:
tcp4   0   0  HTTP_SERVER.80  81.56.174.131.34347    FIN_WAIT_2

The last access from this client was today 22/Mar/2005:11:19:39 
according to the http-access file.
It's 19:56 at the moment. So over 6 hours in FIN_WAIT_2 state, is that 
normal?
