I'm sorry if this issue has been addressed, but I couldn't find any solutions via search.
The server we are running (WHM 60.0 on CentOS 6.8) is continuously creating a lot of connections on port 22/SSH and I can't figure out why. Attached is a screenshot showing what exactly I am referring to. Connection will pretty quickly grow to 300+ and not go down, which is causing issues with SFTP connections. The only way I've found to alleviate the issue if to run "killall sshd" and then restart the SSH server.
I'm wondering if anybody has come across this problem and any insight on it? Thanks.
