The problem I was talking about is, that checkpoint doesn´t remove Tcp connections from the state table even they are closed via fin or rst packets. The connections only get removed when tcp timeout is reached. And this only happens with SecureXL enabled. So the session table grows very fast. We spend a lot of time debugging with checkpoint because of this.

Mind you that connection handling has undergone some other changes as well in R65. You can start dropping connection entries early if the table is filled up. And you can protect the table from pseudo connections (anything but TCP) filling up the table. Hugo. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hugo.vanderkooij.org/ This message is using 100% recycled electrons.
