No, ipsql is a Win32 application that is available from
http://www.zeos.dn.ua, it works really well other than this apparent
disconnect problem. I have also had the same problem using the Win32 ODBC
client and MS-Access.

netstat still things the connections are ESTABLISHED, which is obviously why
the postmasters are still there. Re: the client, there is a newer version
which I will get.  I haven't dug around in the code but is there any form of
inactivity timeout in the postmaster for remote connections ? It might be a
good solution if there was.
