Number of file descriptors in creases

Hello all
I'm currently walking through my code with purify to see wether there's
anything dangorous happening. The most serious thing I doscovered was an
increasing number of file descriptors being in use. They are allocated
when ever a new connection is established and it seems they don't get
cleaned up automatically.
Is that me who is using omniORB wrong? Is there a way of cleaning up
stale file descriptors from the API (either implcite or explicite). I
guess there is because I would expect a server to run into problems
after a while when the operating system's limit of FDs is reached. I
actually have server crashes which may be caused by that. However,
omniNames absolutely never crashes at all though being contacted quite
often.
I'm still using version 2.2.

Regards,

	Jan Lessner
