I apologize immediately for the cross post, but I don't know who frequents which lists. At least I avoided hackers :-) I have a program that creates X tcp connections to a given host (it's a proprietary network interface card... X.25, TCP/IP, etc). Now, I want to be able to test this sucker from FreeBSD. When I start all 400 connections, 3.1-RELEASE REBOOTS. Hmm... kind of nasty behaviour. I'm running on a Pentium 166MHz with 32MB of RAM and a 96MB swap space. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can someone tell me if I have a kernel configuration problem with this? Or is there something more sinister going on? I KNOW FreeBSD can EASILY handle such things, a la www.cdrom.com which hosts a lot more data throughput than this. Thanks a bunch in advance. HELLO to Eivind Eklund if he reads this! ;-) Matt Gessner, mgessner.freebsd@flashmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
