Increase the number of TELNET sessions allowed
Increase the number of telnet sessions allowed :
The number of telnet sessions allowed is limited to 60 by default and it is controlled by xinetd. You can check it from /etc/xinetd.conf file on the server.
A default /etc/xinetd.conf file will be as per given below;
==================================
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
==================================
In case you want to increase those sessions you will have to modify the line
instances              = 60
Put any number instaed of 60 say 100 and save the file.
instances              = 100
After any modification done in this file, you will have to restart the xinetd services.
# service xinetd restart
