I've never been able to have more than 19 or 20 connections to the
X server on my Sun3; further attempts to connect always fail with
the standard "connection was probably broken by a server shutdown
or KillClient" message.  This has yet to happen to the X server
running on my VAXstation 2000, with even 25 or 30 connections.
Is there some kind of configurable limit to connections that I
don't know about?
