The allowconnects in server only allow one connection per client. allowallconnects allows any number of connections up to the maxconnections limit.
It's true as I also wrote that the number of connections can be controlled on the agent side. However that will not control those connections made by other things than agents. My point is that the documentation isn't clear and that I'm missing an option. -- Emil -----Original Message----- From: Seva Gluschenko [mailto:seva.glusche...@gmail.com] Sent: måndag den 21 juni 2010 12:35 To: Assarsson, Emil Cc: help-cfengine Subject: Re: Denying repeated connection from Emil, The maxconnections option in the body agent control serves exactly as a number of connections a client can do. The body server control has its own maxconnections option which restricts the total amount of client connections served by a server. So it's not "1 or all" as you wrote, at both sides. 2010/6/21 Assarsson, Emil <emil.assars...@sonyericsson.com>: > Hi, > > It might be worth mention in the documentation: > - that allowconnects will only accept 1 connection per client. > - log entries "Denying repeated connection from" are a consequence of > multiple of connection from clients when the server only permits one. > - allowallconnects on server or setting maxconnections on agent to 1 will > solve this. > > It would be nice to have a setting that will allow limitation of the number > of connections a client can do.
