My /proc/sys/fs/file-max is already 102432. I tried to change the nslapd-ntconntablesize from adminconsole, it failed with the error nsslapd-maxdescriptor is 1024. Then i tried to change maxdescriptor to 4096 it failed with the error maxfile descriptors must range from 1 to 1024 (the current file descriptors). Any idea? Regds, SK
