This occures when maximum simultenous connection from your machine exceeds.. so apparently your ip_conntrack table is full, you can review your table
with:
# cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack
The max number of connections is set in
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max
You can increase it with:
# echo "some_number" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max
But be sure to use not much high value as it will use more RAM.

New problem..
hi linux groups,
i am using redhat linux 9 distrp.
my linux h/w configuration is :
ram = 64 mb

ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet accur.
and i have tried this cmd:
# cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack | wc -l

It means you have to increase it again !
-
for 64 mb ram nearly 7000 connection is allowed
by my experience u shoud upgrade the 128 mb ram (16000 connection)
to avoid packet loss

Hi there, i have the same issue, was wondering what would be the right amount of connections on a box with 1.5 gig dual channel ddr?
-
as prasadeapen has mentioned .. u can set roughly 7000 connections for 64mb ram machine.. so u can set it accordingly
