Like recompiling the kernel, quite possibly. On FreeBSD there's a sysctl, although you may still have to recompile the kernel in some cases I think; on Linux you can zap a variable in proc.

I don't see why zope should need so many file descriptors. But you may have to start tracing code <frown>. I have previously noticed a related phenomenon: on FreeBSD when I start zope, *something* tries to open every possible port number using a separate file descriptor. They must then be closed, because after startup only the ports requested are still open. I determined this by running lsof and capturing the output. In this case, it appears to be benign; the only negative consequence is the appearance of the "Too many open file descriptors" message in /var/log/messages. --RDM _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
