Problem:
I am unable to connect more than ten WOW Thin Client sessions to my Linux server.
Resolution:
This issue is caused by a change to the xinetd service daemon defaults on some Linux distributions.
The "per_source" attribute specifies the maximum number of instances allowed to a single source IP address. On some Linux variants this default is set to a value of 10.
In order to address this issue you will need to modify your "rpcplus" xinetd configuration file ( /etc/xinetd.d/rpcplus ) and add the "per_source" attribute. For example:
service rpcplus
per_source = UNLIMITED
You will need to restart the xinetd daemon after making these changes. Please check your Linux distribution's manuals for information on how to restart xinetd.
