How do I increase my available filehandles? I tried sysctl

The reason that i think I need to increase my filehandles is because I'm
averaging about 1200 simutaneos users on a website that I'm hosting and the
mysql database keeps crashing with (errno: 9) saying it can't find files
that I know are there. As soon as I do a pkill -HUP httpd and a
mysql.serverrestart everything works for a bit more until we get
another traffic surge.
fstat | wc -l usually returns about 6000 lines.
Am I crazy?
This is in the archive and the errno: 9 is files, but you need to
increase that inside MySQL.
Just dig it up a bit, it's in the archive with the exact solution how to
fix it as well.
Search for login.conf.
It should get you exactly what you are looking for.
