I'm running four qmail smtp servers with a concurrencyremote of 500 each
one, to do this you need to setup these points :
1) Apply this patch at your qmail-1.03 source tree :
http://www.qmail.org/big-concurrency.patch
2) Before compiling edit conf-spawn and put "500" in the first line
3) Compile and install
4) echo "500" > /var/qmail/control/concurrencyremote
*** If you're using Linux 2.2.x (and 2.0.x I think too) :
echo 65536 > /proc/sys/fs/inode-max
echo 16384 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
You need to do this every system reboot, I don't know how to make this cange
persistent.
Whit these steps you can get up to 500 qmail-remote proccesses at the same
time..... I'm trying to get more than 500 but at the moment I can't.
Bye.
RDA.-
