too many connections made the broker stall

Encountered a problem when too many sockets were open and put in "CLOSE_WAIT" status by the broker.

gridmsg001 was rebooted as quick fix, but should be found a different way to keep it up!

Update: problem related to excessive number of connections being open at indiana.edu. track of the error seen through checking the log errors. Indiana corrected their algorithm but still todo, find a way to block connections otherwise, a typical Denial of service may occur :S
