Do a "show conn detail" command. The output from the pix will add the the following:

FW# s conn det

Flags: A - awaiting inside ACK to SYN, a - awaiting outside ACK to SYN,

B - initial SYN from outside, C - CTIQBE media, D - DNS, d - dump,

E - outside back connection, F - outside FIN, f - inside FIN,

G - group, g - MGCP, H - H.323, h - H.225.0, I - inbound data, i - incomp

lete,

k - Skinny media, M - SMTP data, m - SIP media, O - outbound data,

P - inside back connection, q - SQL*Net data, R - outside acknowledged FI

N,

R - UDP RPC, r - inside acknowledged FIN, S - awaiting inside SYN,

s - awaiting outside SYN, T - SIP, t - SIP transient, U - up

In your case the flags UfrIO means your outside host does not respond to close the connection. Eventualy the connection will time-out and will be dropped by the pix.

A netstat command on hosts (in a DOS prompt) may help you diagnose the problem.
