求教服务器tcp连接数被占满的问题

服务端tomcat开始后报错，看了一下错误应该是机器TCP连接数被占满的问题，我的程序中有一个while(true) 的循环每3秒执行InetAddress.getByName(macIP).isReachable(timeOut)执行ping两台客户端。另外两台客户端与服务端各有一个socket长连接。服务端有个ibatis的数据库连接池。服务端程序运行了几天之后，突然出错，InetAddress.getByName(macIP).isReachable(timeOut)执行时IOException异常了。重启了tomcat也不管用，只好重启了服务器。我觉得是InetAddress.getByName(macIP).isReachable(timeOut)的问题，但是我测试了几十万次是没有问题的。服务器系统是win2003server。请教各位，帮忙分析一下。
