- Sigh. My poor little netbsd-based FTP server is having SERIOUS
- problems. Probably due to 20+ people trying to fetch the same large
- file at one time. It's crasing regularly with above panic. From
- checking the source, it appears to be running out of mbufs.
-
- While all of this makes sense. I'd like it to stop crashing.
-
- First, the obvious question: anyone got a patch for NetBSD 1.1 that
- will clear this up? How about going to NetBSD-current?
-
- Second, the unobvious question: a load-limiting ftpd should solve the
- problem. There are no pre-compiled ftpd's available from the
- NetBSD-amiga sites I frequent. Building wu-ftpd for BSD systems (after
- some cleanup) results in an ftp binary that SIGSEGVs when you try to
- get a file from it. Does anyone have such a beast already ported to
- NetBSD?
-
- Third, the omnipresent question: anyone got any other suggestions?
-
- Thanx,
- <mike
