This is a snipping from=20 /var/log/messages:

Jan 10 16:56:43 refresh2 syslogd: = /var/run/utmp:=20 Too many open files in system
Jan 10 16:56:43 refresh2 last message = repeated=20 3 times
Jan 10 16:56:43 refresh2 /kernel: file: table is full
Jan = 10=20 16:56:43 refresh2 syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in = system
Jan=20 10 16:56:43 refresh2 last message repeated 3 times
Jan 10 16:56:43 = refresh2=20 /kernel: file: table is full
Jan 10 16:56:43 refresh2 syslogd: = /var/run/utmp:=20 Too many open files in system
Jan 10 16:56:43 refresh2 last message = repeated=20 3 times
Jan 10 16:56:43 refresh2 /kernel: file: table is full
Jan = 10=20 16:56:43 refresh2 syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in=20 system

How can I tell what program is leaving = these files=20 open?
