While the advice is good, this error has nothing to do with the error
message seen. Quotas won't make a difference. You are not running
out of descriptors.

The real reason for this error is that the value of the socket descriptor
returned by the accept function can be any 32-bit unsigned integer (DWORD)
on Windows. Unlike Unix the values (technically a SOCKET value) can be
any number and are not usually consecutive values limited by the fd limit.
On Window ANY value is valid. However, under the old Windows socket
design this could result in the indexing into an array well beyond the limits
of the array and thereby corrupting memory all over the map. That was one
of the reasons for the redesign. The array had to be eliminated. All the
evidence
so far is that the new design is much more stable and reliable.
