Thank you very very much.. but sysctl sendspace/recvspace will be the limits then? can I set SO_SNDBUF to something higher than tcp.sendspace? I'm thinking of setting tcp.sendspace to 64k and using setsockopt on ircd to set it to 2k (why an irc connection would need more than that?), so apache will use 64k and ircd 2k.. am I right? :P []'s Sean Chittenden wrote: >> Is there any way to change its value according to the connection's uid >> or port? > > > Not with sysctl(8).
