I have configured inetd to spawn http-gw for connections coming to the HTTP port (80). Many times a day I get "inetd/http server looping, service suspended" error. I found out that this happens since the number of connections on that port is above limit (default 256 connections per minute). I increased it to 1024 (by specifying nowait/1024, also tried nowait/1024/1024 since I wasn't sure of the format). Still I get the looping error. I am sure that that many connections in a minute does not happen. Any other ideas and solutions for this problem? --Gopu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
