That needs kernel recompiled. In reality max socket connections (tcp or unix no matter) per process and per system are usually the same number and depend on maxusers variable in the kernel configuration. Hence you change that value from default 32 to some upper figure being a 2^n value and run consequently: config YOUR_KERNEL_NAME in /sys/i386/conf directory and make depend; make; make install - in appropriate compile directory usually mentioned in configuration utility output. If I'm not wrong approx. meanings are the following: 32 users 40?? sockets 64 users 82?? sockets etc Good luck :0) Alexander Komratov To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
