Synopsis: unprivilaged user takes all file descriptors

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: hoek
State-Changed-When: Mon Jun 21 12:37:18 PDT 1999
State-Changed-Why: 
If you're using the bash shell, 'ulimit -n 100' will limit to 100 the number
of open descriptors.  For other shells, see their manpage.

You can also limit open descriptors from login.conf.  See `man 5 login.conf`.
