[ipac] z39.50 server woes

PPS: I know that there is a problem with the z3950 server never closing 
it's connections and eventually running out of connections. This is why 
we have our HIP scheduled for a weekly automatic restart. However, I 
wonder if it got enough connections within a week that it still ran out. 

Does anyone know if there's any good way to see if my HIP z3950 server 
is currently experiencing that problem?
