RIght now a squidclient mgr:info | grep 'file descri" shows: Maximum number of file desciprtors: 1024 Available number of file descriptors: 204 Reserved number of file descriptors: 100 If I edit my /etc/security/limts.conf to change the file descriptors, any certain number I should bump it up to? 4000, 8,000, 10,000, 16,000? I then should stop squid, put in max_filedesc ##### (whatever number I set above I assume) and restart squid. Looks like squid was compiled with"--with-filedescriptors=16384" If that is the case and the default is max_filedesc 0 which takes whatever the machine is set to, then I assume I don't need to change anythign in squid? Thanks. -- Scott Mayo ------------------------------------ Assuming, you are logged in as root, the simplest is to edit /etc/init.d/squid and insert ulimit -n 4096 before the actual start comd for squid. Then restart squid, and the new limit should be effective. This also will be a permanent solution, surviving a new boot. ------------------------------------------------------- Just got that response, but had arleady edited the limits.conf file and set the descriptoers to 8192 and restarted squid and now I am showing: Maximum number of file desciprtors: 8192 Available number of file descriptors: 7958 Reserved number of file descriptors: 100 Hopefully that will take care of that error and I will go from there. Thanks. Scott
