Server refuses connections after time

Hi, We've been running WFTP for a couple of years. Until quite recently, the server ran flawlessly, non-stop. But a couple of months ago, the server started refusing connections. The only way I could fix it was to restart the server (Ubuntu 12LTS). Then the server runs fine for a couple of weeks before refusing connections once again. It has happened several times now and seems to be a permanent problem. Please help me fix it, thanks.

Did you get any server logs in WingFTP? If you did not, maybe you can configure the maximum number of file descriptors like this:

Hi, I'm not sure what you mean. I have the WFTP server logs but there doesn't seem to be any relevant info in them. Which log should I be looking in and what am I looking for?

WingFTP's domain logs, I guess it exhausted the socket resource and you need to enlarge the max file handle.
