Hello,
I am trying to write a asynchronous server using python's 
asyncore/asynchat library and running it under cygwin. It runs perfectly 
for upto 353 concurrent hosts connected to it, but is unable to connect to 
anymore hosts trying to connect to it.

Is there a limit on the number of concurrent sockets an application can 
have open? Am I hitting that limit, and if so is there a way of modifying 
this limit.

This is on server 2008 with cygwin 1.7.  I am happy to provide any other 
diagnostic information as needed.

Thank you,
Sameer
