Interesting... the help for that entry in the kernel
was misleading to me then. What I got out of it was
that each connection was each entry is 128+8 bytes,
and you should calculate the max connections you
expect to get times the number of seconds the
connection will last in the table (600 seconds
persistance set for port 443 currently), and that was
how much memory you needed, so I calculated the value
of X to get me to that number (2**X).
Max connections we can handle at once is 480.
480*600*136=approx 39meg.
2**26 is 64m
I'll read through that section of the HOWTO.
I'm not sure this will resolve the network issue we
are experiencing though, since we never made that
change to the backup director.
Thanks,
Dan.
