Hi All,
The free Windows command-line untilities Netstat and Netstat -an alllow one to view all ports, connections used when surfing the web. Still, is there a way to _close_ any connection. I am interested in doing it within SQL Server, but I wonder if there is a more general way of doing it.
Thanks.
