Sebb, Thanks for the probing questions and sorry for the delay in reply. Somehow I did not notice this reply.

Its a test to simulate a video tutorials viewing test. I forgot to mention that the test plan have 3 thread groups running in parallel. So it makes it 150 threads in single instance. I am still trying to chase the problem. In order to understand which connection is being rejected, I am trying to capture data packets, but its huge data. So I am trying to capture only syn, syn-ack and possible rst packets. But to do any kind of co-relation I need to know what local ports jmeter used. However I am not sure if jmeter can log the local port it used, or better yet, when it shows failed request with any kind of exception, can it also log local port for that socket? I tried to check the properties files, but could not find exactly what I was looking for. Turning the complete debugging for httpclient may be too much, and may also slow down the test itself. Any inputs? Thanks, Manish
