Hi. I have traced my open files issue on my machine to hald. This does not occur on my notebook, just my desktop... uname -a FreeBSD pc-racine1.mcmaster.ca 6.1 Symptom - if hald is enabled, the number of open files grows and eventually hits any limit set (25000 currently). If I kill hald, files immediately revert to a stable number... No hald running... sysctl kern.openfiles kern.openfiles: 1208 sleep 10 sysctl kern.openfiles kern.openfiles: 1208 hald running... hald sysctl kern.openfiles kern.openfiles: 1233 sleep 10 sysctl kern.openfiles kern.openfiles: 1240 sleep 20 sysctl kern.openfiles kern.openfiles: 1252 Looks like something is failing to close files, and any suggestions most welcome. -- Jeff -- Professor J.
