Is there any file-descriptor limit in 2.4 kernels?
Hi all. I have been looking for information on google, but I did not find anything about this question. I have found the old limit of 255 fdfor 2.0 kernels, the 1024 one for 2.2 kernel, but none for the 2.4 kernel. I have been digging into /proc without finding anything. Anyone knows that answer?

It's configured through /proc/sys/fs/file-max. I think the default 4096 but it can be increased unless you are very short on memory. The default ulimit for login shells is 1024 fds but that can be increased as well. -- -ckm
