I don't think that option has any effect any more -- config reports an unknown option and I couldn't see any relevant mentions of it under /sys anywhere. The limit is just (40 + 32 * maxusers), according to /sys/conf/param.c, and I don't see a way to override it other than maxusers or diddling the source. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
