Here's some pertinent info: #> uname -a FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #9: Fri Feb 16 12:58:02 PST 2001 :/usr/src/sys/compile/ i386 #> sysctl -a | grep files kern.maxfiles: 16424 kern.maxfilesperproc: 16424 kern.openfiles: 15942 #> fstat | wc -l 2096 As you can see, kern.openfiles and fstat totally do not agree. I'd like some suggestions on how to figure out what's going on here. From the information I have, it looks like some sort of fd leak, but this is definitely not my area of specialty.
