Hi,

This is quite a vague email, I'm just sending it in case anyone else =
experiences the same problem down the track or has seen it before.

I've been running the JDK1.2.2 port (patchset 10) and Tomcat 3.1 on =
FreeBSD 3.5 (stable-20000718) for the last ~17 days (that was the uptime =
of the machine before the crash I'll describe). Yesterday I attempted to =
SSH to the box to do something and it booted me straight off. Toddling =
up to the dingy computer room, I see on the console that it has run of =
out file descriptors to allocate. I've never seen this before with =
FreeBSD, and it had the effect I couldn't log on or do anything (apart =
from, I know I'm a sinner, the three-figure salute).

Are there any log files I should be aware of that may indicate the cause =
of the runaway file descriptors? I'm blindly pointing the finger at =
JDK/Tomcat because it must perform a lot of file IO (the box also runs =
sendmail (light load for the configration of the box) and sshd but thats =
about it).

The only reaon I mention it is in case there's a resource leak with the =
JDK or Tomcat. Sorry its so vague, any pointers on how I can better help =
with info would be appreciated or something to put in place for logging =
in case it occurs again.

Cheers,
Joe
