After doing a man -k on sem and reading through the man pages that see relevant, I'm still unable to determine the correct method, though it does look like it may involve loading a module in /bot/loader conf. Can anyone point me to some How-to documentation on raising this value to increase postgresql connections? Thanks Tim
