Redhat 7.1 - Delay Connecting to port
I have a Redhat 7.1 dedicated server and have noticed recently that when i have over 100 people connecting to a specific port lets say 1111 then the connection to that port becomes incredibly slow.telnet 127.0.0.1 1111
Connecting...
then 10 seconds later it displays:
telnet 127.0.0.1 1111
Connecting...
Welcome To Port 1111
*Thats all just an example, but im sure it shouldnt be happening.
What id be interested in knowing is if its a known configuration problem with the OS or if it could be a problem with the program that is on port 1111, Id like to remind you that it ONLY happens when there are approximately 100 or above people connected to the port/server at once.
I have tried rebooting the server and restarting the program, etc...
Any help/troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated. as its very difficult for me to emulate the problem without a live server as it only happens when over 100 people are connected.
Thanx for any help in advance.
