    Theorhetically, there is no limit to the number of connections. Your actualy capacity will depend on your server's hardware specs, available bandwidth, how many streams you're serving, and how much actionscript you need to process.

    Hi,

    Like Jay had mentioned the limitation on the number of connection to server depends on the capability of your server.

    You can get the maximum number of connections made to the server, number of active clients... etc details through Administration APIs.

    'getServerStats' gives you the "total_connects", which is the maximum number of connections made to the server. "connected" property will return the number of active clients to your server at one point. It also has many more statistics for your reference. This api returns the overall information of the server. If you want to get the details for specific vhost, you can use getVHostStats or getActiveVHostStats. To get more details on Administration API, refer your pdf documentation on "Administration API", that gets installed in your system under "$Root\Flash Media Server\documentation\flashmediaserver_3.5_administrationAPI.pdf".
