We're sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking help on using MySQL products. Your problem is not the result of a bug.

Support on using our products is available both free in our forums at http://forums.mysql.com/ and for a reasonable fee direct from our skilled support engineers at http://www.mysql.com/support/

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.

"unauthenticated user" is normal when one attempts to connect, but havaen't been authenticated yet. In your case you should tune number of persistent connection, value of max_connections and check if latter is reasonable for your hardware and OS limits.

i have already attempted that

max_connections = 1000
max_connect_errors              = 1000
connect_timeout                 = 30

i have no problem with my hardware limits...

thanks in advance.
