I have a server running that needs several hundred connections. Just now we ran into a problem (at the time we had 200+ conns to the server in question) and the whole box froze (current version is 2.2.2-R). logs: Dec 17 14:20:24 ice syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system Dec 17 14:20:24 ice /kernel: file: table is full Dec 17 14:20:24 ice last message repeated 96 times And so on. On first glimpse through the kernel config file I can't seem to find anything to increase the amount of file descriptors. Where is this done? I cannot find anything about it in the docs... -Brandon
