I have a server running that needs several hundred connections.  Just now
we ran into a problem and the whole box froze (current version is
2.2.2-R).  Logfile:

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.  Help?
