I have a Mandrake 8.2 (2.4.18-6) server running Postfix. I've noticed
through 'ps aux' that there are approx. 100 Postfix processes running,
but to my understanding this is normal. Recently the error log reports
that "Too many files open on the system". Also a gnu-pop3d error is logged
"Socket closed". I have increased the file handle limit from 8132 to
65536, but the same errors reoccur. Someone on a mailing list told me to
increase the "max files per proc" limit, but I don't know where to go to
increase this limit. I couldn't find anything in /proc. Is there an option
I can add to /etc/sysctl.conf?
Any help would be much appreciated.
