Good day,

Reading the manual page, I don't see how to totally turn off those
functions as it keeps causing problems for my mass connections from
some services that needs to do mass paralle connections over the
latency links ;(

I already use SSHGuard to successfully block any other "attacks" and I
need to have these mass parallel sessions starting without SSHD
interfering beyond RAM/CPU resources limits so where/how to totally
turn of that functionality ?

Thank you
HEndrik
