Synopsis: limitipconn.patch breaks legitimate connections arriving from behind firewalls State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: marc State-Changed-When: Mon Dec 20 08:08:27 PST 1999 State-Changed-Why: Erm... yes, by definition, if you have a large number of connections arriving from the same IP then this patch will drop them. That is the whole point. If you are in a situation where having a large number of connections from the same IP is legitimate, then don't use it. That is why Apache doesn't do it by default.
