Hai In my POP server i see the following on netstat
tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56597 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56580 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56582 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56565 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56567 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56566 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56560 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56563 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56562 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56575 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 192.168.4.222:110 192.168.100.235:56568 TIME_WAIT This TIME_WAIT is from my webbased mail server and thie TIME_WIT is there for some time and so the new requests are not handled by mu POP server. Is there is any configuration to reduce this TIME_WAIT period. While analysing in site i have found the following option sysctl -w net.ipv4.vs.timeout_timewait=60 But while i ran it on my Debian machine it says the timeout_timewait Key not found. Any way to solve my problem. Thanks Prabhu __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
