Using % ulimit -n 8192 % postfix start
Postfix is working flawlessliy, but how can I set the OS limits "automagically"? I already edited /etc/security/limits.conf to contain: * hard nofile 8192 * soft nofile 8192 but that results in the aforementioned "fatal: socket: Too many open files" error. Postfix is running on kernel 2.6.x, Debian/GNU Linux. -- Ralf Hildebrandt Geschäftsbereich IT | Abteilung Netzwerk Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin Campus Benjamin Franklin Hindenburgdamm 30 | D-12203 Berlin Tel. +49 30 450 570 155 | Fax: +49 30 450 570 962 ralf.hildebra...@charite.de | http://www.charite.de
