Greetings All,

A friend recently asked about the following:

  System is 3.2-RELEASE, and this keeps coming up in /var/log/messages:

  Jun 13 07:32:52 fw1 syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system
  Jun 13 07:32:52 fw1 syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system

  Kernel was built for 32 users, it is a firewall only
  machine with 0 users. On previous 2.2.8 system I used
  to build the kernel with:
  options         CHILD_MAX=384
  options         OPEN_MAX=512

I believe the answer lies in login.conf but since I've not gone to the 3.
yet I thought a sanity check was in order.

Thanks,
Nick
