Grids Network Issues

Grids has been bogging down with excessive ssh and httpd connections, so I temporarily shutdown both of these to clean out the connections. I also killed all of the sshd connections (most of which should not have been kept alive).

I also changed a few parameters in the Apache httpd.conf file to make connections time out more quickly (from 5 hours to 5 minutes). This should not affect anyone unless you are, for example, downloading a large PDF file over a very slow connection from the lab publication list.
