You are right Neil.. A machine can make more than one
connection to same server. Some of them are database
connection and some only to OS conneciton. For Example :
Oracle has an parameter to find and kill dead sessions..

PostgreSQL can run on different OS.I think this is solved
database level rather than OS level.
