hi all,
I am using Redhat 7.0 on my multi-processor server.
problem desc:
when the no. of users logged on using the "telnet" service exceeds
89, the server then refuses any more telnet connections (though rlogin
works)
in /var/log/secure, the error msg is as follows:
Nov 8 16:32:40 email xinetd[416]: FAIL: telnet service_limit
from=172.16.1.11
email being the name of the server
This happens from any given machine on the network.
Checked up the source code of xinetd
current version is : xinetd-2.1.8.9-pre11-1
but could not find any reference to 89, though i tried to trace the
variable service_limit, AC_RUNNING_SERVER, CF_RUNNING_SERVER, there seems
to be no definite place that it gets initialized.
Please help..
Thanks in advance!!
Lisa
