Sometimes some systems will have a constantly running process which looks for inactive processes, and kills them. In some operating systems this may be built-in, sometimes a local system programmer installs such a program to reduce the load from useless idle processes.
You might check to see if you have something of that sort on your machine. The listener can be idle for a long time between requests. Once a server has been started on behalf of a client, the listener drops out of the loop and goes idle. Received on Fri Jul 19 1996 - 00:00:00 CEST
