Yeah thanks but to my untrained eye it doesn't exactly fit:

erinn at ipa ~ $ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
1199770

erinn at ipa ~ $ cat /etc/security/limits.conf
dirsrv          -       nofile          8192

and,
session     required      pam_limits.so
in system-auth

This was all there before and yet I hit on that problem. Am I reading
things incorrectly or not understanding them, I have a very small
environment (~40 systems) and it doesn't seem like I should be having
this problem.
