To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works
in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
(such as xinetd).
MaxInstances 10000
Set the user and group under which the server will run.
