[users@httpd] Maximum number of users

[Nadir Mahmoud <nm...@xtria.com>]

Hi all,

 

Can I control the maximum number of users (clients) who connect to my
web server by using apache directives?

Please help,

 

Nadir

You control the maximum number of client connections using the
MaxClients directive.  But remember that one browser often makes
multiple simultaneous connections and, alternatively, several users
may communicate over one connection using a proxy.  So there is no
direct map between users and connections.

If you told us exactly what you are trying to accomplish, we might be
able to help more.
