** sorry i know no one to ask:( **

am running squid on a linux 2.2.1 box and am running out of file
descriptors, there was a patch for this when i was using the 2.0.36 kernel.
so i think this is a kernel issue.
if the current kernel (2.2.x) allows for a lot of fds per process, how will
i inform the process to go ahead, it's ok?

they ask about changing the "#define OPEN_MAX" line in the
"/usr/include/linux/limits.h"
file. is this the way to do it?

thanks.

please reply directly, am NOT on this list. i wouldn't even begin to
understand what most of you guys take for granted.
