Further more, do you see the log file showing the rejected connections like2007-11-10 02:06:30 Connection from [xx.xx.xx.xx] refused: too many connections from that IP address
If yes, you probably just count not only the connections in ESTABLISHED state but also in TIME_WAIT, FIN_WAIT_2, etc...
Try this: netstat -nf inet $* | grep -v " $" | grep -v "LISTEN$"to display all connections except the listening ones, about the quick check of what is on inbound wise.
OliverPS: Sorry if some get this message twice, I didn't get it back at all and suspect my first try did not reach the list (incl. archive) because of a wrong sender address on my part.
