Hi,
the entries themselv can't be the problem (directly) - I see something
between 500 and the theoretic maximum is about 2000. I now established a
cron-job to take a closer look at the numbers.
The connect itselv is very short lvs just does the connection, the answer
goes from the real-server directly back to the client - but both are very
short-lived.
Could the problem lie somewhere deeper inside the IP-Stack?
About 1000 Clients permanently reconnecting - are there some IP-timeouts I
should consider setting lower?
Kind regards,
Nils
