error 502 - too many connections

Post by signal2noise »

I am allowed 20 connections.  I have two servers set up with 10 each, but I keep getting the too many connections error.  What am I missing?

It sometimes takes time to close a connection, and sometimes they are left open until they time out. If you have enough of these over a short time you'll use up your 20 connections. Try lowering your connection-count a bit (7-8) and see if that helps.

Also, if you use 10 connections to the US server-farm and 10 connections to the EU server-farm of the same Usenet provider (at the same time) then you're already using all 20 connections.

Hope that helps.

Thanks.  I've lowered the connections on each to 7 and will see if that helps.  Also, my timeout is set to 120 secs.  Is this a good setting, or is there a better?
