Bill, ulimit -a shows the following: core file size (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited pending signals (-i) 40960 max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 64 max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 1024 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200 stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 40960 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited file locks (-x) unlimited This looks fine except the 'open files'. I don't think we would exceed that number but it might be possible. Thanks for your interest.
