Hi everyone, I have problems with ip_conntrack table on debian GNU\Linux kernel 2.6.10. Dmesg replies me: ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet. printk: 181 messages suppressed. ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet. The only way I've found online is to unload/reload the iptables modules, but that will make me lose packets, and in my network, that's not possible.Somebody knows how to flush that table manually? Greets, Sam
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max That's the maximum number of connection tracking (simulteneous conections). You can increase it by issuing: echo "12345" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max If I remember right, around 250 bytes of memory are used to control each connection, so you can figure out the max you can choose on your system.
