This probably won't be a problem unless you have a very large number
of simultaneous connections. I'm not sure what the default limit is
for Linux.

Hello cyrus users,
I'm running 2.0.11 in a Red Hat Linux 6.2 (kernel 2.2.16)
I'm getting this message in syslog:
master: unable to unlimit the number of file descriptors avialable
(sic)
Running master thru strace I find:
setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, {rlim_cur=RLIM_INFINITY, rlim_max=RLIM_INFINITY}) =
-1 EPERM ...
So the call wih problems is the
limit_fds(RLIM_INFINITY);
one in master.c (before master becomes the cyrus user).
man setrlimit says
"
EPERM A non-superuser tries to use setrlimit() to
increase the soft or hard limit above the current
hard limit, or a superuser tries to increase
RLIMIT_NOFILE above the current kernel maximum.
"
So if I'm not wrong the second case applies here.
Is this an critical condition ? Someone using Linux is
experiencing the same problem ?
TIA and excuse me for my English.
