"ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet"


Indicates the server is processinbg a lot of packets. Are you running a IRC server or something?

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max  and see what it say's.

I'm running a webcab from a desktop to SME with ftp

Have you tried;

"cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max"

To see what it says?

Any ideas what could cause this?  I have never seen this before and don't believe I am running any heavy traffic.
