After re-reading the original post, I observe the mention of "from a single client".
There is nothing that limits the number of connections from any particular client. -ascs -----Original Message----- From: Axel-Stéphane SMORGRAV Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2006 11:09 AM To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: RE: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Max number of connections from a single client to a server. There are several parameters that determine the maximum number of connections. Only one of them is an Apache parameter: MaxClients. In addition to this, there are system limits that restrict the number of connections a single process may accept. If you use the worker MPM of Apache 2.x, the maximum number of file descriptors that can be opened by a single process may be a factor, especially for a proxy. You can browse or set that limit using "ulimit -n" on Unices. Kernel parameters define a "hard" limit that cannot be exceeded, as well as a default "soft" limit. In Solaris those are rlim_fd_max and rlim_fd_cur. In Linux those parameters are set in the /proc file system (I believe it is /proc/sys/fs/file-max). -ascs --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
