What is socktest.pike trying to achieve? Right now, I noticed that it achieves this:
| Sep 9 16:23:48 orchid kernel: [17205413.808000] printk: 4 messages suppressed. | Sep 9 16:23:48 orchid kernel: [17205413.808000] ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet. | Sep 9 16:23:53 orchid kernel: [17205419.572000] printk: 4 messages suppressed. | Sep 9 16:23:53 orchid kernel: [17205419.572000] ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet. | Sep 9 16:23:58 orchid kernel: [17205424.104000] printk: 8 messages suppressed. | Sep 9 16:23:58 orchid kernel: [17205424.104000] ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet. | Sep 9 16:24:04 orchid kernel: [17205430.476000] printk: 6 messages suppressed. | Sep 9 16:24:04 orchid kernel: [17205430.476000] ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet. | Sep 9 16:24:08 orchid kernel: [17205434.248000] printk: 3 messages suppressed. | Sep 9 16:24:08 orchid kernel: [17205434.248000] ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet.
and 65,000+ ip_conntrack, indeed (from /proc/net/ip_conntrack).
This is probably not exactly the intention, so what *is* the intention?
