Re: file desciptor on linux > 2.0.33

Ok, I've been looking at the filedescriptor threads for a while now and
have always been baffled at why a *patch* is needed... why not do it nice
and manually?

Edit /usr/include/linux/fs.h and change the following two variables:

#define NR_OPEN 1024
#define NR_FILE 1024

Feel free to set it to greater than 1024. Then edit
/usr/include/linux/limits.h and change the following:

#define NR_OPEN 1024
#define OPEN_MAX 1024

Then you have to recompile the kernel.

Voila! Guaranteed to work(1). :)

Cheers,
Umar.
