Consider putting the following statements in '/etc/system' and rebooting: set rlim_fd_max = 4096 set rlim_fd_cur = 1024 This sets the default number of open file descriptors to 1024 (instead of the 256 default) and a max of 4096. --- Mike Wade * Senior System Administrator * Chattanooga Data Connection, Inc. mwade@cdc.net * http://www.cdc.net/~mwade/ * 423-266-3369 x223
