Hi, I get the following messages sometimes if i try to restart sshd: #etc/rc.d/sshd restart eval: Pipe call failed: Bad file descriptor eval: Pipe call failed: Bad file descriptor [...] #/etc/rc.d/sshd restart /etc/rc.subr: Pipe call failed: Too many open files in system I am running 5.4-RELEASE-p6. Dual XEON 3.06GHz with 2 GB of RAM. sysctl: #sysctl -a kern.openfiles kern.openfiles: 9607 #sysctl -a kern.maxfiles kern.maxfiles: 65536 /etc/sysctl.conf: kern.maxfiles="65536" kern.ipc.nmbclusters=64000 kern.ipc.nmbufs=256000 kern.maxproc=8192 kern.ipc.somaxconn=4096 #vmstat -i interrupt total rate irq24: xl0 46574469 169 [...] irq29: em0 1 0 irq30: em1 1 0 Device Polling is active. load averages: 1.00, 1.08, 1.09 647 processes: 1 running, 644 sleeping, 2 zombie A lot of users connects via ssh (x-forward). Also sometimes they can not connect because of "too many open files". So what could be the problem? Any hints? Thanks in advance. asg ######################################################################## # DISCLAIMER # # # # Der Inhalt dieser E-Mail ist vertraulich.
