In a Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS/i686 (Pensacola) server, suddenly the new telnet sessions didn't show a login. It always happened when you had 60 users connected. If you log out one of the users, one login will appear in one telnet. I looked everywhere for the maximum number of users: in sysctl -a ... in ulimit -a ... in /etc/security/limits.conf ... in the PAM modules ...

It was dumb of my part, since it was obviously a telnet problem. The telnet configuration file seems to have the solution:

/etc> cat /etc/xinetd.conf
#
# Simple configuration file for xinetd
#
# Some defaults, and include /etc/xinetd.d/

defaults
{
        instances               = 60
        log_type                = SYSLOG authpriv
        log_on_success          = HOST PID
        log_on_failure          = HOST
        cps                     = 25 30
}

includedir /etc/xinetd.d

I just changed the 60 for a 100...
