Hi all,
I've been running squid on my FBSD 2.1 system for quite some time
now, and yesterday I hit my first real problem.
The cache was getting quite a bit of work. About 3500 hits / hour and
it started returning pages saying that it was busy, and / or out of
file descriptors. Here's part of the /var/log/messages entry
Jul 25 10:02:19 seraglio syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files
in system
Jul 25 10:02:19 seraglio last message repeated 3 times
Jul 25 10:02:19 seraglio /kernel: file: table is full

Jul 25 10:03:23 seraglio sendmail[6413]: KAA06413: SYSERR(UID0): Can't open
/dev/null: Too many open fil es in system
Jul 25 10:03:35 seraglio /kernel: file: table is full
I've rebuilt the kernel with
options "CHILD_MAX=256"
options "OPEN_MAX=256"
but I don't know if that's going to solve the problem. Anyone got
some more ideas?
TIA,
Peter
