Peter and John,

 I also have been writing DUAs etc.  The only way I have found to release 
 half open connections to the DSA is to have the DUAs xselect their bind
 connections to the DSA.  That way the DUAs are awakened by the collapse
 of the bind connections when the DSA fails.  The DUAs can then cleanup
 the connections.  I don't believe DISH and friends do so.


 Thanks, Jim Reed

 PS:  I'm running ISODE-6.6 and have fixed some of the QUIPU leakage in
      that release.  I can forward my humble corrections to you if you're
      interested.
  
      Colin Robbins says he has or will soon post corrections QUIPU.
      Also, a new version of QUIPU is due soon with such corrections and
      "updates" to the QUIPU encoders/decoders.  Perhaps we should wait
      for the new versions.  I'm worried though that problems with PEPSY
      (the new ASN.1 compiler) could delay the next version.
