sshd buildup of CLOSE_WAIT leading to unable to function


Hi. I'm getting a situation on one machine where sshd will fail to
accept connections in a way that says "connection refused" even though
it is listening. The server shows a large (58) number of connections
in CLOSE_WAIT.

A Google search leads me to
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg01235.html
and eventually to
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q198663
but I don't think that's right. Somebody else managed to this this in 2009
