Re: ipv4 connection problems

:Right after I had a hung telnet:

    It does not appear to be hitting any limits.  Check your 'dmesg' output,
    are you getting a packet rate warnings?  In particular RST rate 
    warnings?

    Also check your apache configuration... how many simultanious connections
    is it configured to handle?  You have ~229-25 active connections and
    I think by default Apache only handles 150.  I don't know what
    percentage of those connections are to port 80 and what are to other
    ports, but it's definitely a possible suspect.

    If it isn't an apache configuration issue then all I can think of is
    to ctl-alt-esc and panic the machine while telnet is in this state and 
    get the vmcore and kernel to us, we might be able to figure out what
    is going on post-mortem.
