Has anyone had issues where newsx gets a "Too many open files" error?  I'm
running newsx on a i386 FreeBSD machine.

>inserting newsx path
>newsx: can't open incoming spool
"/usr/local/news/spool/incoming/.tmp.gig2.33553": Too many open files
>transfer interrupted
>latest article was 5080555
>no spool to flush

Should I be changing the shell's limit or should I be doing a kernel
rebuild?

When this error arises it also doesn't update the
/usr/local/news/spool/inhosts/spoolname file.  This 
causes newsx to start(at next runtime) from the beginning of the newsgroup
list and compare feed articles to the local history file.
