rsync processes hang and client failing on "max connections", I can't kill rsync process.
The temporary work around are: increase max connections in /etc/rsyncd.conf or reboot the server ! The client get this error: @ERROR: max connections (6) reached - try again later $ ps -aux | grep rsync admin 30408 0.0 0.0 1696 232 ? S Mar26 0:00 [rsync] admin 28121 0.0 0.0 1688 40 ?

I can't kill them, nothing happen when I try to: kill 4529 kill 30408 etc... rsync is started from inetd rsync version on the server 2.5.2 clients are 2.5.2 and 2.5.4 Please advise Dib Urim -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
