I've been running the JDK1.2.2 port (patchset 10) and Tomcat 3.1 on = FreeBSD 3.5 (stable-20000718) for the last ~17 days (that was the uptime = of the machine before the crash I'll describe). Yesterday I attempted to = SSH to the box to do something and it booted me straight off. Toddling = up to the dingy computer room, I see on the console that it has run of = out file descriptors to allocate. I've never seen this before with = FreeBSD, and it had the effect I couldn't log on or do anything (apart = from, I know I'm a sinner, the three-figure salute). Are there any log files I should be aware of that may indicate the cause = of the runaway file descriptors? I'm blindly pointing the finger at = JDK/Tomcat because it must perform a lot of file IO (the box also runs = sendmail (light load for the configration of the box) and sshd but thats = about it). The only reaon I mention it is in case there's a resource leak with the = JDK or Tomcat. Sorry its so vague, any pointers on how I can better help = with info would be appreciated or something to put in place for logging = in case it occurs again.
