This means that the number of connections being tracked to/from your 
machine is exceeding the allocated size.  You can review the table 
to see what's going on:

# cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack


The maximum number of connections is set in

# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max


and can be changed with the following instruction but remember that 
the larger the table the more system memory it will consume.

# echo "max_number" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max


It can also be instructive to run the utility "iptstate" to show 
your active connections and the associated timing.
