Re: Connection reset by peer errors

I doublechecked those settings, and they're all set at the defaults.
Also, the behavior when trying to download a file is that the download
starts, and is proceeding at a normal clip, when all of a sudden it
fails when the connection is reset. So it certainly doesn't seem as
though the connection is idle for a while, and then fails...

Ugh... I wish I could solve this!

Thanks Coraleigh - I'll give those a look, though honestly I'm not
optimistic - I haven't touched those IIS settings in a long time, and
I didn't have the problem before. So unless one of the recent MS
updates changed something there on there own...

Ahhh..so perhaps we should look closer at your iis website config.

Take a look at your IIS Connection Timeout setting...

Small bit of followup - FTP downloads work fine; it's just HTTP
downloads which are stalling and having the connections reset.

Thanks in advance...

Yes, those are the errors, but no, I can't turn the service off, as I
do need FTP running. I've not yet tested to see if the connection
reset errors occur with FTP (I will) - so far, all the errors have
been with *web* (HTTP) downloads.

One last thing I should mention - although I *think* that the errors
starting at the same time of the SP2 upgrade, I'm not positive about
that. Could some other automated MS update (I allow them to be
applied automatically) be the culprit? It's definitely something new
within the last month or two though...

Thanks for all your help thus far Coraleigh!

If your MSFTPSVC is an id 100 warning then it is due to people trying
to log
into your system via FTP and having incorrect username or passwords. If
you
do not use or need the FTP service you should uninstall it (via
Add/Remove
programs-> Windows Components->Application Server-> IIS->FTP), or at
least
disable the service. However, you said that you have external users
who
download files from your website, if they are doing this with FTP then
you
obviously should not remove it. :-)

I will do more thinking on this tommorrow.. in the meantime does anyone
else
have any ideas fordnigrin?

Do you have any related Event ids in your event log?

Nothing specific I can see. I *do* see a ton (2 per second!) of
System events from MSFTPSVC, failed login attempts due to bad
password
or username. Seems like someone is trying to break in. Could that
be
the problem? How do I block that?

Did you try all the Workarounds in the article as well?

Yes - I applied the Resolution patch, and then also did Step 3
(Method
2, at the Registry level) and Step 4. I didn't do step 1 (not
running
ISA server), and I couldn't find any new network drivers for Step 2.

Are you using ISA server?

Nope.

Are you experiencing any other networking type issues? Any internal?

No, everything else seems to be fine...

Thanks,
Dan

Unfortunately, it looks like that MS patch didn't fix the
problem -
I'm still getting connection reset errors, regardless of browser
used,
Mac or PC.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks...

Thanks Coraleigh, that definitely looks promising. I'll go ahead
and
apply the fix that's listed in that KB article, and pray for the
best!

Much appreciated, thanks again.

I'm running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2. Around
the
time
I applied the SP2 update, users of my website who needed to
download
large-ish (4MB - 12MB) files consistently started getting
"Posix
error, connection reset by peer" errors.

Did something change in the SP2 update that would effect
this?

Regardless, does anyone have suggestions on what to do to fix
it?

Thx
