The problem is not on the client but the server side and it is probably a misconfiguration because inactive connections should be reaped at some sensible interval (even if what "sensible" means may vary from one implementation to the other).
Issue a
netstat -a on the server side and you should see the open sockets, probably with the status "ESTABLISHED" or "LISTEN".
What you do next depends on what exactly your system is, so you would have to tell us about the specifics of your "UNIX box". In most systems there is some kind of kernel parameter for how long to hold open inactive sessions, but what exactly it is depends on the system (and maybe the version) you use.
I hope this helps.
