We run thousands of interfaces successfully with gnugk. We had to hand-build our ptlib for our platform, as it was compiling with a static maximum limit of 100 interfaces. If your platform has SIOCGIFNUM, ptlib should build with the ability to dynamically choose the number of interfaces. If your platform does not have SIOCGIFNUM, you will need to patch src/ptlib/unix/socket.cxx with a number larger than 100. Case in point: src/ptlib/unix/socket.cxx #ifdef SIOCGIFNUM PAssert(::ioctl(sock.GetHandle(), SIOCGIFNUM, &ifNum) >= 0, "could not do ioctl for ifNum"); #else ifNum = 100; #endif Change that 100 to something larger. Depending on your version of ptlib, you may need to patch other files (like ./src/ptlib/Nucleus++/socket.cxx), but the best way to figure this out is to grep your source for SIOCGIFNUM and look at the code to see if there are any hard-coded expectations that you need to increase at compile time. Also, be aware of filehandle limits. This bit us as well. By default the limit is usually 1024. You're going to need more than that. Much much more. Rather than fight with it, I just set ours to a very very large number. Depending on your platform, you may need something below 32768. ulimit -n 32767 Good luck. - Ian Blenke <ian@xxxxxxxxxx> On Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 10:58 AM, Robert Kulagowski <rkulagow@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Sun, Nov 21, 2010 at 2:16 PM, Robert Kulagowski <rkulagow@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> On Sat, Nov 20, 2010 at 5:49 PM, Robert Kulagowski <rkulagow@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>> On Sat, Nov 20, 2010 at 2:31 PM, Jan Willamowius <jan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>>> Hi Robert, >>>> >>>> looks like PTLib IP detection function has a hardcoded limit of 100. >>>> Put your IPs into Home=.
