Hi,

I'm curious what causes this exactly... I noticed this occurring when I =
used a load test on my apache webserver to see how many hits/sec it =
could potentially handle ... after a little while the test would start =
failing with bad byte count errors and I noticed that if I went on the =
web server itself and tried to make a tcp connection to anywhere I got =
an error like this:

ftp: socket: No buffer space available

Is there only a limited number of tcp connections that can be made from =
a box at any given time or what?
