Excessive hits to missing URLs uses up all ports on Windows

Key: IVY-1105
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1105
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-beta-2
Environment: windows xp sp2, linux fedora core 9, running Ivy
repository through http for remote resolving and Hudson CI server (publishing
to the repo).
Reporter: Ernest Pasour
Assignee: Maarten Coene
Fix For: 2.0-RC1
Ivy is extremely aggressive towards repositories . This can result in
resolving fails, even towards a healthy repository.
The symptom:
[ivy:resolve] 01-07-2008 13:16:24
org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector executeWithRetry
[ivy:resolve] INFO: I/O exception (java.net.BindException) caught when
processing request: Address already in use: connect.
In effect this happens when Ivy has performed a successfully DOS attack against
the repository.
This is especially a problem when having large repositories (lost of revisions)
and resolve against latest.status -> as this will fetch ivy.xml md5 and sha1
files for every revision.
