all network ports in use

8 Mar 2001

      Hi,

There is sometimes a problem, logging into our two SuSE 7.0 (SMP)  machines. 
Trying to log in with telnet procudes the following error Message:
"telnetd: all network ports in use"
In such a case it is not possible to log into the machine for several hours.
Is this because of a portscan an anything else?
Did anyone have a similar Problem?
