I get the same message in all our Windows server with P2, reported that a week ago but haven't heard anything about it yet. Also the P2 crashes several times a day even in a low-load server, hopefully the "very soon to be released" fixed windows version is coming soon.

Today I've upgraded one of the Windows XP installations of BIND from 9.5.0-P1 to -P2. Everything works like a charm except that there is a one suspicious warning entry with ID 2 in the Event Log saying that ------------------------------[Cut]------------------------------ the 'files' limit (2048) is less than FD_SETSIZE (16384), increase 'files' in named.conf or recompile with a smaller FD_SETSIZE. ------------------------------[Cut]------------------------------ There is no "files" directive in my named.conf under the "options" section. It seems to me that the nature of the warning described above seems to be strange because the default setting for the "files" is "unlimited". I've tried to subsequently set the "files" option to "16384" and "unlimited" but it doesn't help. Could anyone confirm this and suggest the possible trick to avoid the problem? Thanks. -- Yours sincerely, Andrey G. Sergeev (AKA Andris) http://www.andris.name/
