Good to know.. It's a bit irritating with all those errors scrolling by at startup :) > BTW: Does anyone know the maximum number of aliases that can be configured per network interface? > --------------------------------- > Frode Nordahl > --- I have 253 routed now on a box, and things seem fine. I also have the number of users set high and some 500 or so virtuals set up and testable (though Im off to try more IP numbers and a better testing solution).. Questions: as above, any one get a limit on the number of aliases? Any limit on the number of virtuals with CGI access? (CGI access seemed to be a problem over 133 virtuals on a linux box).. Any one have any interesting testing programs for ranges of IP's on a machine for http access?? Jeff Jeffrey B.
