OT: Linux 2.4 max proccesses and files

[Ken Jones]

Any of you folks know in linux 2.4 what /proc entries need
to be modified to allow more processes and increase the
number of file descriptors?

I know in Linux 2.2 the following would do it:
echo XXX > /proc/sys/fs/file-max 
echo XXX > /proc/sys/fs/inode-max

Linux 2.4 has a file-max but no inode-max

Any ideas about what to set in 2.4 for having
pop, smtp and qmail-remote concurency around 300 or more each?
