- Hello Sun Netters,
-
- Under csh, the 'limit' command gives you a list of some
- resource restrictions, one of which is the "descriptors" is set at
- 64. This indicates that the max. number can be opened at one time by
- one process is 64. I know I can use the limit command to increase it.
- However, you need to do that in everyone's ~/.cshrc.
-
- What I want to know is, is there a kernel variable that
- stores this limit? ie: can I change some variables in the /sys/*/*.h
- files so when I rebuild a kernel, that limit is automatically set
- for every user?
-
- thanks in advance.
