How to break CLOSE_WAIT

Hi Gurus,
When i perform netstat -a, i saw the hundreds of connections are in
CLOSE_WAIT state. This causes my named-xfer using these connections to
sleep, truss -p <process_pid>.
Is there a timer to set, say after 120 seconds the CLOSE_WAIT
connections will break so my program can reconnect again?? For example
the "ndd" command??
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Best Regards
shahb
