I have added "kern.maxfiles=3D16384" and "kern.maxfilesperproc=3D16384" = in my FreeBSD 4.3 server to raise the number of file descriptors. The problem is that the ircd daemon does not see these changes at startup, it reports that there is too few file descriptos. If I manually start ircd after startup has completed, it starts without complaining. It seems like the changes in sysctl.conf at startup does not take effect until the startup process has completed, perhaps it is after the securelevel has been raised or something. What can I do to solve this? Can I modify the number of file descriptors in some other way, or start the ircd daemon in some other way?
