ah! only 1024.  What is considered a reasonable value?  Is it setting this or 
picking it up from the defaults such as ulimits?
The server sets this itself.  So you have to set the value yourself.

See http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/pdf/ds71cli.pdf - search for nsslapd-conntablesize and nsslapd-maxdescriptors
I assume I need to do this on all of the multi-masters and consumers to be the 
same, or do I?  Does it propagate?  I'm not sharing the config tree among 
different servers.

Subject: Re: [Fedora-directory-users] not enough file descriptors

What is the value of the "nsslapd-maxdescriptors" attribute on cn=config?

I have a problem with running out of file descriptors.  I get this repeating message 
periodically in the /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-<servername>/logs/errors file:
[02/Mar/2007:13:25:45 -0500] - Not listening for new connections - too many fds

When this happens, the users cannot log in for long periods and get angry.  
Imagine that.  I do have this in a multi-master configuration with a second 
master, which is different hardware and does not show this error.

I read the tuning page 
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Performance_Tuning#Linux, which 
recommends updating the filedescriptors limit like so:
echo "64000" > /proc/sys/fs/file-max

However mine is already well above that:
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
128456

How much higher should I be setting it?  I am running RHEL 4 update 4, single 
Pentium III 1.4GHz processor, 1280MB of memory.

I don't have any settinsg in sysctl.conf or /etc/security/limites for soft/hard 
limits, how do I tell what the defaults on soft/hard limits are?
