Re: Too many user connections (local)

[Santosh Pasi <spasi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Matus Fantomas,

Thanks for your reply.

Here the situation:
We have a irc server, a webserver(apache 1.3.14 + tomcat-jakarta 3.2.3). 
Now all my irc clients will be using web base (java) irc client.They will be connecting to my apache web server which will authenticate, 
and will give connection to irc server


  

           ----------------------------> WebServer -> IRC Server
           |            |
workstation1 ... workstation8,500

Problem of connection is solved. But whenever no. of connections reaches 
upto 920-990, suddenly all the connections to irc is lost.
I tried to fine tune linux networking properties, linux file system 
(ulimit), irc (ping time), tomcat-jakarta (pool) settings, but no success.
If you have any suggestion, any web page which can help me .. please let 
me know. 
Thanks in advnace to you and to other readers.

Regards,
Santosh Pasi
