Date: 3 Apr 1997 03:28:03 GMT Organization: Computing Sciences Dept., University of Scranton Lines: 15 Distribution: world Message-ID: <5hv843$84h$2@info.cs.uofs.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: triangle.cs.uofs.edu Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc:5729 I am trying to run INN-1.5.1 on a P5 with NetBSD 1.2 and keep getting a message about "Too many open files" which then stops the news-server. Can someone tell me what parameter to change in the config to up the number of per-process open files?? I have looked in the various sources (like the FAQs) and couldn't find it. And while I'm at it, what document should I have to lookup these parameters up in?? Is there a doc on kernel configuration that I just haven't located yet?? bill -- Bill Gunshannon | de-moc-ra-cy (di mok' ra see) n.
