17.Internal users of your company’s website complain that at peak time they can connect to your server only with extreme difficulty and often receive a timeout error. You find however that the system load is negligible, plenty of extra memory and bandwidth are available, no hardware or line problem is involved and that no errors are logged. What is the most likely cause of this issue?

The value of the “MinSpareServers” parameter is too low.
The value of the “MaxClients” parameter is too low.
The value of the “MaxRequestPerChild” parameter is too low.
The value of the “MaxKeepAliveRequest” parameter is too low
The value of the “StartServers” parameter is too low.

Explanation: The MaxClients parameter configures the maximum number of authenticated clients which may be logged into a server or anonymous account. Once this limit is reached, additional clients attempting to authenticate will be disconnected. Increasing the MaxClients parameter will allow more connections, thus eliminating the timeouts.
