I'm running into an issue where my system will lock up due to too many open file
s. It's been happening for a couple months. I upped the open file limit, but th
at didn't seem to help.
[root@bbs ctrl]# ulimit -a
core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority (-e) 0
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals (-i) 15605
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 8192
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 950000
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority (-r) 0
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 950000
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited
I'm still getting lots of this, and it will refuse to let anyone log in.

Now, when I checked, lsof | wc -l only showed about 72K open files. the majori
ty were by sbbs/term, and sbbs/http to /sbbs/data/user/user.dat
after killing sbbs and restarting, my open files were down to 12k.
The kicker is, 72k is far less than the 950K my system allows. is there an op
en file limit built into SBBS?
