Is there any way to limit the # tcp connections under Linux ? I've tried ... echo 8 > /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn ... but I can still open 10 ssh sessions, as well as a web server. I know I could run iptables, but I was looking for a much lower level solution (with a smaller resource footprint). Any clues ?
