Hey everyone, I'm working on getting at least 140 users onto my Telnet server on CentOS 7. I've already tried changing the instances line to UNLIMITED or higher numbers in the /etc/xinetd.d/telnet file, but it hasn't worked. The telnet.socket accepts between 3000 and 5000, yet connections keep dropping to around 64 or 69. I'm having to block some users to let new ones connect, and I'm struggling to increase the number of simultaneous users. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot, PD:
