Malcolm,

This has happened to me several times and has caused me much distress. The
recently migrated farm will be running fine for some time, and then
everything goes to heck in a handbasket, conincidentally about the time of
an app server crash on the back-end that disastrously affects the farm. I
get numerous (20-100) sessions that have no session ID (e.g., ICA-TCP#). I
also get the event error you mention below. We believe it is related to a
large number of user disconns/re-conns when the specific function related to
the app servers fails. It appears to build on a few servers and then cascade
to as many as 8-10 of the 30 servers. Of course, users get extremely slow
login times; as much as 6-10 minutes from 8-10 seconds. I am drilling down
into the KeepAlive setting that I thought was implemented farm-wide. This
issue has caused me much grief for nearly 4 weeks now, ever since we
migrated from NT4-MF 1.8 to Server 2003-MFXPe.

Subject: [THIN] System under attack

Has anyone come across a System event ID that says
 

The terminal server received large number of incomplete connections. The
system may be under attack.  Source is Termserver and event ID 1006.

 

Thanks

Malcolm
