Hi guys,
I have a program which tells me it needs more open files than the system can
handle.
When I do nlimit -n, it tells me I have 1024 files max. How do you increase
this number, permanently? I found some stuff about
changing /etc/security/limits.conf and /etc/pam.d/gdm and some others, but
that doesn't really work. It's probably some simple trick and I remember
something alike before, but I cannot remember how it was done.
I use FC2 with KDE.
Thanks,
- Jeroen
