    For what its worth, I've shuffled TLP off port 23 out to 6502 in search of a more peaceful existance that doesn't get hammered. Ought to keep things more reliable. A raft of incomplete logins and partial logins tends to hold ports open and confuse HAPROXY on the outward facing side.

    How so?

    I'm using haproxy here too - and with a couple of concurrency rules (only 2 current connections allowed) and timelimit rules (1 connection per minute), per source it doesnt seem to be too much of an issue.

    (But yeah, I'm not using DOS either...)

    How so?

    I'm not 100% sure where it falls apart. I'm suspecting the timeouts on both ends of the equation. It takes some time for RLFOSSIL to timeout a
    connection, and then there's the timeout HAPROXY end... I'm not sure which
    end is really holding it in limbo.

    HAPROXY appears to accept connects from the outside, while losing any
    available connects on the inside. I suspect HAPROXY has reset itself before RLFOSSIL either gets reset or decides the connection is gone. Is it RL
    hanging up? It can be susceptible to this, but either way getting hammered doesn't help it.

    At times you can see some of whats happening, have a look at the VM's while some are busy and you're trying a local connect (still goes through HAPROXY) VM's not busy.

    Whichever it really is, the port change already seems to have had a large impact on availability.
