RE: Socket Question - Host Refusing Connection

Looking at the Accept() api, I don't see a way to know how many pending
request there are.  I would try to increase the run priority of the
listening job to see if it can then keep up with the connection request.
This job should not be doing much processing if all it does is accept and
hand off jobs.  Maybe put it into a subsystem with a dedicated memory pool
and monitor it's activity.  Sound like you already have the correct server
design now you just need to keep up with the work flow.

Chris,

I essentially use Scott Klement's spawning server model.  I have a listener
job that receives the connections and hands it off to a server job.  At
peak volumes there are 3000 connections an hour.  I would expect the
backlog to be exceeded based on that volume.  That is why I wanted to know
if there is a way to see what is happening on the host .  Thanks.
