TCP Listener returned error on accept = AFP blows up. Need help

Environment: 10.6.7 Server. Xserver. All Mac clients. It's a school. Problem: AFP refusing connections or not loading the Home Directory Symptoms: Library/Logs/AppleFileService/AppleFileServiceError.log blown out with "TCP Listener returned error on accept" happening every second.

I cannot figure this out. The server has not been updated recently. -checkhostname returns no error. There have been some new iMacs (10.6.8) connected recently. I have read this might be MaxThreads; or corrupt .DS files, but I am really struggling. Please - any clues at all? I can't keep rebooting every day. Any ideas at all please.

hi pkmusic, we are having the same problem. do you have phone over IP? we are using 5 servers (10.6.7 and 10.6.8) for user home directories. network goes through Siemens IP-Phones. Each server has max. 40 - 50 users but the error occures even if there are only 15 - 20 users connected. have to check the MaxThread-Settings next week ...
