	If you want to increase the number of FDs on the system, recompile
your kernel with a higher "maxusers" value.  Look in the handbook
(http://www.freebsd.org/handbook) for details on how to do this.  (It
basically requires changing an obvious line in one file, doing about 4
specific commands, and rebooting.)
