I seem to have found a way to jam up DSS very easily...
I have an application I have written that lets me audition via rtsp
.mp4 audio only movies on my DSS server. This is simple and
works very well.
However....
I found that if I repeatedly click the same file name, I can open lots
of connections to DSS. This results in one genuine connection that
tries to play, and several 'stale' ones that will eventually time out
after 2 minutes.
The point is, I can keep clicking till I reach the user-limit, and then
DSS will
not let other users connect. In fact, it jams up even if there are only a few
stale connections 'running'.
Perhaps someone else can see if they can duplicate this, as it
would seem to be a major problem.
I'm running DSS 5.53 under OS X 10.47. I have not modified it in
anyway.
regards,
Ian.
