Subject:   Directory Limit Question
Message-ID:  <JEELLDECNKBMDHPNMECKOEPADOAA.clients@dreamtime.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
How many subdirectories might be created in a directory on a
local drive (freebsd-4.2). I have put 32765 subdirectories and
when I try to create another one, the system says:

bash$ ls | wc
   32765   32767  288325
bash$ mkdir anotherone
mkdir: anotherone: Too many links
bash$

Is there is any "official" limit, is there any way to overcome it?

Sincerely,
