Have you checked login.conf to see if descriptors is being set there?

Anyone here ever gotten FreeBSD 4.1 to work with more than 8K open file descriptors?? It seems that even if I define FD_SETSIZE to 16384 when I build the kernel, when I look at the limits I see: ux# limit -h cputime unlimited filesize unlimited datasize 524288 kbytes stacksize 65536 kbytes coredumpsize unlimited memoryuse unlimited descriptors 8232 memorylocked unlimited maxproc 4115 So seem to be running into 8232 as a magic number for some reason, but haven't figured out where this limit is being set. The need for this is an IRC Chat Server, and currently if I allow over 8K clients things start to crash and burn fast. If anyone knows how to get past this limit it would be appreciated.. --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
