- How many open socket connections can winsock handle? Is it left to
- the winsock implementor? I know that winsock.h has a default of
- 64. But does it depend on the individual tcpip stack? For
- example on the Novell stack, I cannot complete more than 6
- connections. It says no more buffer space error. Do all stacks
- have some setting related to this that is configurable?
-
-
- Also, Is it a good or bad design to have , say 100 connections,
- always open at all times? especially with respect to using
- a pc based tcp-ip stack.
-
- Any help would be greatly appreciated. ( By the way, am using
- all async. socket calls and no blocking ones).
