What Solaris release ?
Is this number impacting the service ?
These connections will eventually timeout.

Error check your application for proper 'tcp' conversation

- in most cases, the close-wait state means the local endpoint (your side - your application) has not properly closed the connection after the activity has actually stopped, in other words - the talk has come to an end.

- check your source-code to make sure all sockets are closed after they are not needed ;

good luck, and success!
