This message indicates that the inetd (“Internet super-server”) daemon received too many requests for a specific service. By default inetd limits this to 1000 connections every 60 seconds.
This message may occur due to any of the following reasons:
Too many service requests occurred in a short interval.
A “broken” client program is requesting a service too often.
A malicious user is running a program that is flooding the server with too many requests, to deny service to other users.
The invoked service program has an error causing clients to retry their requests for services too quickly.
If only the first problem exists, you may use inetd's -R option to increase the rate limit (see man inetd for more information.)
If the problem persists, contact your System Administrator or your service provider.
