Author Info

Problem

You get a socket error while running the eDirectory LDAP performance tool on a Linux client.

Solution

1. Log in to the Linux client machine as a root user.

2. Edit /etc/sysctl.conf with following parameters:

   net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 15
   net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1
   net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65536
   net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout = 3

3. Log out and log in again to Linux client machine.

The socket error problem should now be solved.

Environment

This solution is generic to all Linux client-server applications.
