[squid-users] Running Out of filedescriptors

    Hello,

    I was looking for answers in FAQ about this question and I tryed to use
the search engine in squid-cache.org website. I do not use kernle 2.2.x so
FAQ is useless them I tryed the index of messages in the maillist. One
message give me some idea for what may I do:

I did not compiled the squid I used an RPM (RedHat v8.0 - squid v2.4 Stable
7-4) and so I can not compile it again. I tryed to change the file under
/proc/sys/fs/file-max to some like 4076 and this do not work, I am still
getting messages abou filedescriptors.

    I found a message that say to take a command (ulimit -a) and it returns
this:

core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) unlimited
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 1024
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 2047
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited

    How can I change one of this values to meet the 4076 need to run
properly?

Att,

Nataniel Klug
