What platform/os are you using? I recall some kind of problem with INN related to socket/file operations on Solaris. I will see if I can drudge the data up. It had to do with select/poll and the number of file descriptors that these function could handle internally (regardless of what was set with limit/ulimit). But I sincerely doubt that LPRng would have need to use an fd number greater than 1023...
Patrick most likely will have more information on this... Tom On Thu, 20 Sep 2001, David W.
