my squid stars with the following command
/opt/squid/bin/squid
i have added this line to the following file
/etc/rc.d/rc.local
i have also added the ulimit command to the same file, so that when
ever i reboot my machine this file will run before the squid command.

Good during compiling you must have seen that the  __FD_SETSIZE number
was detected by the compiler right?
We have this setup too and as Henrik says just try and stop your squid
after machine boots then
run the ulimit with your set number------->then start squid.Then
monitor
And please reply.

im still not able to change the file descriptor in my squid box,
i have found an article on the internet advising me to do the

following :

vi /usr/include/bits/types.h
and then add the line
# define __FD_SETSIZE 8192

Why did you edit this file? (no longer required).

after that , i have saved the file, and put this command on the
shell
ulimit -HSn 8192

OK.

then i have compiled the squid., anyway,, when i tail to the

cache.log file i

still see the file descriptor as 1024 which means the modification i

made

didnt take place.

Did you also set the ulimit before starting Squid?

All of this is explained in detail in the FAQ.

Henrik
