Re: Who is maintainer of kerberos/heimdall/sendmail?
tlambert They appear to use SOMAXCONN, incorrectly. Do you specify which files for sendmail(8) use SOMAXCONN ? There is src/contrib/sendmail/libmilter/main.c, but it is NOT a part of sendmail(8) (and never be used in other components installed). In sendmail, the default second argument of listen(2) should be '10' which is defined statically. You can change with 'DaemonPortOptions' option (see /usr/share/doc/smm/08.sendmailop/paper.ascii.gz), IIRC. *** Speaking of tweaking SOMAXCONN value in kernel config file, why /etc/sysctl.conf is not enough to do? -- - Makoto MATSUSHITA To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

No code should ever examine kern.ipc.somaxconn; it is there for sysadmin use only. If the desire is to express ``the most this system will allow'', the correct use is to pass the value -1 as the backlog parameter to listen(). All systems which implement kern.ipc.somaxconn also implement this feature. -GAWollman To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

They appear to use SOMAXCONN, incorrectly.
The value of SOMAXCONN is not valis; the valid limit is only
obtainable from sysctl (kern.ipc.somaxconn).
Here is a function which does the right thing:
int
getsomaxconn( void)
{
char*name = "kern.ipc.somaxconn";
int somaxconn;
size_t size = sizeof(somaxconn);
if( sysctlbyname(name, somaxconn,size, NULL, 0))
somaxconn = SOMAXCONN;
return( somaxconn);
}
If someone wants something prettier (e.g. sysctl instead of
sysctlbyname), they are welcome to write it.
