Id verify it by checking the server logs (or number of open sockets)
Im not sure what the jmeter error log would look like if it was the jmeter
that ran out of file descriptors (for the sockets)

If you cant check the server logs/dont have access to it , an easy to verify
is run the same test (but with only half the number of threads) on two
client machines i.e. run jmeter from too different machines at the same
time. If its a server issue then you should see the same errors.
