Are you sure you're spelling that properly? In all other shells I use, it's called "ulimit". And yes, I've been beating this into submission myself on OpenBSD. I've used sysctl to raise the number of system-wide fd's to 4096, then used /etc/login.conf to raise the allowable per-process number of fd's. Then I abandoned bash as user freenet's default shell because the OpenBSD port of bash limits open fd's to 128 arbitrarily in some instances (though this last one confuses me greatly, because it's not entirely consistent). This was a real show-stopped during the 512-ish days when the number of file descriptors used shot through the ceiling. -- Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody." greg at wooledge.org | - The Red Hot Chili Peppers http://wooledge.org/~greg/ | -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
