Could you please provide an example ? > Take a look at the directory server access log. When a client first connects, you will see the connection logged with the client's IP address. The connection will be assigned a number (conn=4364 for example). Then search through the access log from that point looking for conn=XXXX to see all operations on that connection. You should eventually see a disconnect. If you do not, find out what client is on the other end of that connection (by IP address or by the types of operations it performs). > On Sat, Mar 1, 2008 at 2:32 AM, Rich Megginson <rmeggins at redhat.com> wrote: > >> M Vallapan wrote: >> > Thanks ! the settings you mentioned work, but only for some time then >> > the problem arises again. then I have to manually restart fedora-ds to >> > break off all the idle sessions for it to be okay again for a little >> > while.
