The default backlog seems to be only 5, which isn't cutting it when we're getting 5-10 connections/second. The only mention of them in the source (as far as I can tell) is in: /kern/uipc_socket.c but I don't see any obvious method of tweaking the value without breaking things. Any suggestions would be warmly welcomed. :-) Regards, Chris -- Christopher Mauritz | For info on internet access: ritz@mordor.com | finger/mail info@ritz.mordor.com OR Mordor International | http://www.mordor.com/ 201/212/718 internet access | Modem: (201)433-7343,(212)843-3451
