Thanks for the advice from Eli and others.
It was indeed the ulimit problem. I can now make the 1000 connections that I wanted.
Finding out where to set the limit took some digging, but eventually I found out that you can set it in /etc/launchd.conf by adding "limit maxfiles 2048 unlimited" where 2048 is per-process and unlimited is system wide.
Those articles that Hamish linked to are quite interesting.
I think that I am going to try changing my code over to smallSockts as the CF stuff i am using now seems to be dropping messages in my tests. I could be that my test are wrong, but I'll see if smallSockets is better.
Thanks again
Brian

I doubt it (-:
Also note that you can use <x-man-page://2/setrlimit> to increase the limit up to the hard limit that you inherit from your parent process (which is typically unlimited).
