3.2.26 Information About the blockingaccept Parameter
The fix for bug 13905244 introduces a new parameter blockingaccept to the <LS>
element in server.xml configuration file.
This is a boolean parameter, and is set to false by default. If set to true, the listen
socket will be of blocking nature.
However, client end points will continue to be non-blocking.
3.2.27 Information About the timeout Property for dbswitch.conf Configuration File
The fix for bug 13989967 introduces a property, timeout, for LDAP configurations in
the dbswitch.conf configuration file. The timeout property specifies the duration (in
seconds) after which LDAP operations should time out. The property is disabled by
default; that is, by default, LDAP operations do not time out.
The following example shows the usage of the timeout property in the dbswitch.conf
configuration file.
ldap://ldaphost:ldapport/dc%3D...
default:binddn cn=Directory Manager
default:encoded bindpw cGFzc3dvcmQ=
default:timeout 30
In this example, the timeout property is set to 30 seconds.

The Web Proxy Server's http filter implements a magnus.conf parameter
NetWriteTimeout that will enable timeout on write operations to clients.
The NetWriteTimeout magnus.conf parameter takes an integer value which specifies
the client write timeout in seconds, and is disabled by default.
