This issue is in Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL, (put any other linux version you want here). When you get too many files in a directory, you will receive this error. The same SOURCE code is compiled regardless of the "Distro". As you have seen. there are many solutions to this problem ... HOWEVER, picking a new distro is not one of them Most people never hit this limitation, but it is certainly possible and there in all versions of Linux. Thanks, Johnny Hughes
