On my Win98 the exim mail server accepts hundreds of connections (over hours, days and weeks) without problems.... One hundred is about the default max # simultaneous tcp connections. Does netstat -an show them, e.g. in TIME_WAIT? If they happen in a short time (minutes) you may be hitting the default linger timeout. Have you tried setting linger ON with a 0 timeout? > Nicholas Wourms (my (un)willing test accomplice) reported "~3 > minutes" of run time before hitting the same error: so he's > getting a thousand or so (?) connections by the sounds of it. Win98 or ME? If it's ME that reminds of the Xserver problem we had a year ago. Pierre
