Default limit maximum clients using apache web server

hi,
i hope somebody can help me. i wish to limit the number of
clients that can access my Apache Web server. i already set the
MaxClients of the httpd.conf to 5 but the server still allows more
than 5 workstations to connect. i am not sure if my other settings
caused this behaviour. i have sent a copy of the httpd.conf. i hope
somebody can give me some advice. thanks!
