Hi Dmitry,

> I have some issues with TCP stack tuning and/or Apache.
without knowing some more details about the connectivity of the server itīs not
easy to say something about the "connection refused" problem.

1. Is there a firewall guarding the webserver ? If yes, maybe itīs not able to
handle that many connections ?

2. The Router providing the WAN connectivity - maybe itīs not able to handle
that many connections ? 

3. In case your WAN router is doing NAT and uses port based mappings to forward
requests on port 80, maybe the routerīs translation tables are full ?!
This seems most likely to me: the router can not handle any more requests from
the outside - resulting in "connection refused" messages. Still you are able to
connect from your LAN, say an IP address like 192.168.0.x. This works as there
is  no network address translation taking place.

4. and so on, and so on ... :-) 

Regards,

Emre
