you need to edit /etc/security/limits.conf add an entry for nofile the the default is 1024 the max is 65536 (1024 * 64 ) here is an extreme example setting it to the max for all users " * hard nofile 65536 * soft nofile 65536 " after you have made the change log out and log back in you can use "ulimit -a " to verify after you log back in then restart the directory server.
