This is a very busy server and tried to push our programming department to move 
to persistent connections, they feel that it could be a security issue if 
dealing with sensitive information since that connection could be hijacked. We 
do not have an issue on the mysql server side with Port Exhaustion, just on the 
"Frontend webserver". We have made a lot of changes, and are currently managing 
but I fear that we will reach the 65k limit again. If I could get something to 
load balance LAN interfaces I could double the port limitation. I see that 
haproxy has an article on this, I love nginx and use it for other applications 
but maybe its the wrong product for this senerio. I was thinking there might be 
a way using proxy_bind.

Well imo there is nothing else besides to even more decrease the FIN timeout 
(in a LAN that shouldn't be an issue (no slow clients)) so the lingering 
sockets are closed faster. 

Also instead of adding the network adapter(s) on the webserver you should add 
the interfaces on the mysql server and then either via loadbalancer or on 
application level use a round robin fashion (as binding to a specific local 
interface is harder than just connect to a different remote ip). 


Other than that depending on the application you might want to consider using 
persistent connections to MySQL or use some kind of mysql proxy between which 
could pool the connections to the mysql server.
