Hello,

I have been getting error messages in /var/log/messages from named when it
tries to do a zone transfer. The error message says the following:

Oct  4 17:56:58 black-beast named[8649]: startxfr(somename.com.br ->
[10.1.255.10].3901) failing; pipe: Too many open files

A pstat -T reveals:

root@black-beast:~>pstat -T
511/8232 files
   7128 vnodes
60M/139M swap space

Now, my question is when is it saying too many open files? The error only
seems to be comming from named. Does named have too many files open, and
why would it?

Thanks in advance!
