>What is vendor's status regarding this issue? I've e-mailed the vendor, but have received no response *at all*. >It is good we found the real cause of DoS effect in Xitami. >Because, the maxedout values seem to work quiet fine, the problem is >Keep-Alive Connection handling. Yes, I originally thought it was a connection flood because numbers started jumping and then Xitami crashed almost immediately. However, I was actually seeing the effects of my flood combined with numerous other connections that had "hung open". >I don't know how did you actually find out when it has dropped a >particular connection Well, I didn't find out when it was dropping connections, just that it *wasn't* dropping any. My WinME box btw required an extremely high number of connections to crash (I believe the number was over 450), so production machines will require significantly more connections -- it seems to be a bug-induced resource exhaustion. >as in the duration of Keep-Alive affected and >it's connection dropping time and whether it matches the value in configurations? after how long ? >I tried netstat -an frequently by making requests from different hosts on my network, but same results as i told you before. I'm still a bit hazy on exactly *where* in the keep-alive handling that Xitami is buggy -- I'm beginning to think that it is not actually related to an open connection, and instead just a bad resource cleanup on the server end.
