Is there a way to list the connections and confirm this is the problem? It seems it would require an awful lot of connections to consume megabytes of memory. Also, I've looked high and low and can't find this anywhere, how do i tune the timeouts connections get? I have certain protocols that potentially receive very little traffic and I want to make sure they don't time out. -- greg
