This relates back to the original problem of the ddp connection being dropped and the child remaining active -- thus using up the available children. There is definetly something broken, but can't figure out what it is. I was trying to side step the problem by only using ASIP, but the older macs won't cooperate (of course). I believe the problem is on the linux side, since I have two machines at different netatalk levels that do it, and one that does not (much older with isa cards). I've read somewhere that once upon a time there was a problem with the tulip.c driver and am wondering if that somehow is contributing to this problem. What I don't understand is why the child afpd process does not close when the connection terminates -- bug in afpd?? Granted, the connection should not terminate at all, but if it does at least the child should clean itself up. Any insight into the dropped connection issue would be greatly appreciated. hosts.allow has afpd atalkd : subnet : allow line afpd.conf is blank atalkd.conf is blank host is single homed os 2.2.14 - netatalk asun 2.1.3 os 2.2.7 - netatalk vanilla 1.42b both exhibit the same dropout characteristics, both us tulip pci cards, haven't tried another vendor yet [EMAIL PROTECTED]
