Same problem with us.  "Too many connections..."  UUNet sure is having
some horrible growing pains since being bought by MFS and then WorldCom,
and their inability to work with their customers makes me believe they
might not be a part of my network any longer.  I cannot honestly tell my
employer to buy a bigger pipe to UUNet with their past performance and the
attitude they've given us over the last 8 months.  We shall see...
