Anyone have a clue what causes this ... I noticed this occurring when I used a load test on my apache webserver to see how many hits/sec it could potentially handle ... after a little while the test would start failing with bad byte count errors and I noticed that if I went on the web server itself and tried to make a tcp connection to anywhere I got an error like this:

ftp: socket: No buffer space available

Is there only a limited number of tcp connections that can be made from a box at any given time or what?
