It currently runs FreeBSD-4.3-RELEASE. I have been trying to get kern.ipc.maxsockets above 64K. I have tried 128K, 100K, and so on. 80K worked but for all others, the system halted during the boot saying 'pager_swap_zone = null'. I am guessing that the kernel zone allocator cannot allocate enough map space for the pager swap? I am wondering if anyone knows how to get around this problem. Thanks.
