Restricting/Increasing the no of FTP connections to the Linux box

["Sarika Inamdar " <sinamdar cisco com>]

Hi All,

We have a PC which runs Linux 7.3. We have our application running which
collects data from routers and the router FTPs the data to the PC. The
data collected is large.

When we try to collect data for more than 2 devices, the PC hangs .. In
the sense, when we manually do an FTP to the Linux PC, the login prompt
does not appear. Same is the case with telnet prompt. But it does give a
message telling that the its connected to PC.

So, we would like to know, if we can increase the FTP connections on the
Linux box ? If yes, which file needs to be modified ?

Thanks in Advance,
Sarika
