volumes crash on reboot [was Re: clearing Vinum configurations]
After some extensive testing, I've come to the conclusion that Vinum refuses to create any type of volume on the drive I'm having trouble with. I'll create any number of volumes and/or additional plexes on the second drive in the system successfully, only to have all the volumes or plexes that reside on the second drive crash on reboot. Vinum's logs in /var/log/vinum_history aren't very helpful nor are any of the other debugging techniques listed in the vinum debug howto. What I have not been able to find is a way to understand why Vinum declares a volume crashed or a plex faulty. I've initialized and reinitialized the second drive until I was blue in the face; creating filesystems and fsck'ing them; copying large amounts of to arbitrarily created slices all without incident. Only Vinum has a problem with the second drive, and only upon a reboot of the machine. I've had no issue adding plexes to existing volumes and mirroring them. /var/log/vinum_history is filled with vinum started, list, dumpconfig, start usr.p1, and quit messages - nothing descriptive of interest. The same goes for vinum list output, as well as dd'ing the sixth sector on both drives. This is a remote box without -DVINUMDEBUG built and such a procedure is far too prohibitive; it's already taken a week to find a competent tech at the datacenter to work with Vinum and another week to teach him how to setup a bootable Vinum volume. Needless to say we're far behind schedule. As much as I'd like to mirror things and leave it at that, it worries me greatly that something could be physically wrong with the second hard drive and this software RAID 1 setup is only giving my client a false sense of security. I'll need some sort of concrete evidence to ask for a new hard drive to be installed. The first drive, known to Vinum as alpha, is ad0 and has four perfect volumes which the system runs off of. The second drive, known to Vinum as beta, is the slave on the secondary channel and hence is device ad3. I'm almost sure this has no relevance but as you can tell I'm completely lost.

Fatal trap 12
Hi all, New to FBSD, and in the process of moving my Linux/Windows PC to FBSD/Windows. I got two spontaneous reboots last night (the first times it happened) and I got fatal trap 12s in /var/log/messages each time. I wasn't doing anything too heavy, just a make index make readmes on my ports, listening to some music through XMMS and browsing the web via Mozilla. I searched the archives and the FAQ. I haven't built a debugging kernel yet, but I thought I would post the info I have in the hopes that someone might be able to help. I did do an nm - n on the kernel, however. uname -a: FreeBSD creadle.oc.cox.net 4.8-RELEASE-p13 FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13 #4: Wed Oct 15 08:55:21 PDT 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CREADLE i386 /var/log/messages: Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: fault virtual address = 0xbfca02c8 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: fault code = supervisor read, page not present Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: instruction pointer= 0x8:0xc028fe83 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: stack pointer = 0x10:0xd2cfbcf8 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: frame pointer = 0x10:0xd2cfbd08 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x1b Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: current process= 73961 (sh) Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: interrupt mask = net tty bio cam Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: trap number= 12 Oct 14 21:45:23 creadle /kernel: panic: page fault nm -n: creadle# nm -n /kernel | grep c028fe8 c028fe88 T pmap_ts_referenced creadle# nm -n /kernel | grep c028fe c028fe7c T pmap_phys_address c028fe88 T pmap_ts_referenced I did two because I thought it was odd that the first one came up with a higher address than the actual pointer.

${JAVA_HOME}/jre/plugin/i386/ns610_g/libjavaplugin_oji_g.so

Choose which JDK/JRE you want, and whichever version of the plugin you

If you install or re-install mozilla and you have the java/jdk13 port

Anyhow, fire up mozilla and check that it has registered the plugin

Re: /tmp suddenly full - possible DOS hack?
It looks like your messages.0 didn't properly compress when newsyslog rolled the file. Probably due to the fact that your /tmp isn't big enough to bzip a 196MB file. In any case your /var is now full which will make anything that uses /var for storage not happy...my dhcp server suffered this problem once. As for the dos attack I would say it is likely but reading the messages.0 file will be the way to tell. Something obviously wrote way too many messages to the log file and newsyslog didnt roll it fast enough...you should find out what most of the messages contains. Then delete that monster logfile to get your system /var under control. It was because of problems like this that I now install all my systems with a single / mount. I am not certain why the multiple mounts is default on FBSD, but from what little I have read on this subject it seems to have something to do with reliability of older drives (of FS) and the protection of the kernel from corruption.

On Thu, 16 Oct 2003, RJ45 wrote:
I have never understood in which order are execurted the scripts which are

most port applications like mysqld, cyrus-imapd, spamd etc. put their
startup scripts into /usr/local/etc/rc.d but they are not ordered by a
number attached before the script name (like the Unix SysV style)
anyone has some hint about this ?
How can I Set the startup order into /usr/local/etc/rc.d
The scripts are started from /etc/rc; the code fragement looks like:
for dir in ${local_startup}; do
if [ -d ${dir} ]; then
for script in ${dir}/*.sh; do
slist=${slist}${script_name_sep}${script}
done
fi
done
script_save_sep=$IFS
IFS=${script_name_sep}
for script in ${slist}; do
if [ -x ${script} ]; then
(set -T
trap 'exit 1' 2
${script} start)
elif [ -f ${script} -o -L ${script} ]; then
echo -n (skipping ${script##*/}, not
executable)
fi
done
IFS=${script_save_sep}
echo '.'
Thus the scripts are executed in alphabetic order.

Re: XFree86 woes

Re: XFree86 woes
Hi, I've already tried the radeon driver and to disable dri and glx, to no avail(sorry, I failed to mention that in my first post). I don't seem to have a driver named svga, or did you mean vesa?(I have already tried the vesa driver as well, but it made X crash in a way where no more keyboard input is accepted - I had to reboot by logging in from another machine).

Uninstalling Port installed applications
Hi, I have a question about uninstalling port. Say, there are 5 applications -- A, B, C, D, E Installing A depends on B,C,D, and E. There is no problem that I type 'make install' under /usr/port/xxx/A that the port system will help me install B,C,D,E since they are required by application A. Supposed that E was also required by another application F which was already installed in the system, I wonder if I type 'make deinstall' under /usr/port/xxx/A and try to uninstall A, will the port system help me uninstall B,C,D but not uninstall E ?

Re: Uninstalling Port installed applications
You are looking for the 'sysutils/portupgrade' port. It installs a tool called pkg_deinstall. So to achieve what you described, you would run 'pkg_deinstall -R A' and it would deinstall 'A' and any of its orphaned dependencies, ie. B, C, D but not E.

Mozilla weirdness
Hello, I just upgraded my ports tree and I'm running gnome 2.4 with mozilla 1.4. I logged in as my username (not root) and double clicked my mozilla icon (which was pointing to /usr/X11R6/ bin/mozilla). 2 things I got confused is it gave me a dialog box saying which profile to use (by default, there was default), so I clicked choose defaut profile, it responded it's already in use. Then all of a sudden every 2-3 seconds it gave the same dialog box and I couldn't quit, so I had to reboot. This is my 'top' as you can see a lot of mozilla-bin running, any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thank you. PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND 0 ?? DLs0:00.02 (swapper) 0 ?? ZW 0:00.00 (nautilus) 1 ??

The emphasis in FreeBSD is generally on ports rather than packages. For many ports, downloading the source and compiling doesn't take a great deal longer than downloading a binary package. Of course, for some ports compilation takes quite a lot longer. You can use the ports tree to search for what ports/packages are available: % cd /usr/ports % make search key=foo % make search name=bar and you can also 'make readmes' which builds a series of .html files that you can browse through to find stuff.

You can do in a slightly more user friendly that using /stand/sysinstall (/usr/sbin/sysinstall if you're on 5.x) by going to the 'Configure' and then 'Packages' menus. However, sysinstall will try and locate a directory on the FTP servers that matches the version number of your system. This quite often fails: there's not enough room on the FTP servers to keep sets of packages for more than 4 or 5 releases (plus the packages for old releases soon start to be a long way behind the times). Eg. look at: http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/ to see which releases have packages available. Note too that sysinstall isn't very sophisticated in the way that it tries to work out what package directory to choose: for instance, if you're tracking 4-STABLE right now, sysinstall complains because it can't find a directory for 4.9-RC2. Note too that the packages on the FTP sites are updated when possible. There will be an official set of packages built for each release -- the 4.9-RELEASE packages went up to the FTP sites quite recently (even though 4.9 hasn't been released yet), which means that the package building cluster has had to be devoted to doing the packages for the release and hasn't had much spare time for producing updated packages for either 4-stable or 5-current recently. There will be a 'Latest' directory for recently updated packages: for 4-STABLE packages the last updates where apparently around 24th September which predates the most recent updates to the ports tree.

The emphasis in FreeBSD is generally on ports rather than packages. For many ports, downloading the source and compiling doesn't take a great deal longer than downloading a binary package. Of course, for some ports compilation takes quite a lot longer. You can use the ports tree to search for what ports/packages are available: % cd /usr/ports % make search key=foo % make search name=bar snip I noticed a useful looking port tool here recently: /ports/Tools/scripts/portsearch which is a perl script that adds some teeth to the method mentioned by Matthew above. I've not actually used it but it looks useful. Another simple way is to search the INDEX file directly: grep ^mozilla /usr/ports/INDEX to return a list of all ports starting with 'mozilla'. The list can be a bit unreadable so if you add: grep ^mozilla /usr/ports/INDEX | cut -f1-2 -d| it gives a more readable listing: mozilla-thunderbird-0.2|/usr/ports/mail/mozilla-thunderbird mozilla-1.4,2|/usr/ports/www/mozilla mozilla-1.5b,1|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-devel mozilla-gtk2-1.5b|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-devel-gtk2 mozilla-embedded-1.4,2|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-embedded mozilla-embedded-1.5b,1|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-embedded-devel mozilla-firebird-0.6.1_1|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-firebird mozilla-gtk2-1.4|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-gtk2 mozilla-headers-1.4,2|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-headers mozilla-headers-1.5b,1|/usr/ports/www/mozilla-headers-devel mozilla-fonts-1.0_1|/usr/ports/x11-fonts/mozilla-fonts where the first field is the port name and the second is the directory the port resides in. For some ports you might want to ommit the leading '^' (especially in the case of perl packages which generally begin with 'p5-').

NIS problem
(Posted to freebsd-isp on Tuesday, but got no responses) Feel my pain :) We have just begun a migration to NIS (please keep the NIS sucks, Sendmail sucks, FreeBSD sucks, You suck, I suck, etc posts to a dull roar.) In the last couple of days we have seen a lot of messages like the one below appearing in /var/log/messages: Oct 13 06:14:58 x ypserv[45883]: access to master.passwd.byname denied -- client 1.2.3.4:3458 not privileged This goes on for a number of minutes, and then fixes itself. Obviously, the problem is that the NIS lookup request is coming from a non-priveleged ( 1024) port, and ypserv won't honor it. What's not so obvious is why/how this is happening. I'm suspecting it's Sendmail, since the frequency of the message somewhat coincides with the rate of incoming mail on this box.

It looks like for some reason you have a process that's running as root but is using a port over 1024. I can't see anyplace in the NIS client code that binds the socket, though, so I must be looking in the wrong place.

Help nleeded with messy sendmail setup
Hi, [I've read this several times before I posted, It's really confusing...even to me...sorry. Sendmail just kicks my butt every time I need to configure it.] I may have brought this up before, but I just can't seem to find an acceptable answer anywhere. I have a home network, with 2 FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13 machines: curly and larry. I only have need for *local* command-line mail on each. I have sendmail_enable=NO in etc/rc.conf. I also have 2 WinXP Pro machines: moe and shemp. I run httpd and vsftpd on curly. In order to access the www and ftp servers from anywhere, I created an account on http://www.dyndns.org called howse.homeunix.net. I run ddclient to update any changes in my dynamic IP address to dyndns.org. So www requests for http://howse.homeunix.net are bounced off the dyndns.org dns server and routed to port 80 on curly. I have edited curly's /etc/mail/aliases and told it to send all mail addressed to root to charles, who also has an account on curly. I want to log into curly and larry from moe via MS Outlook as user charles to get the daily reports. If I set my hostname on curly to curly in /etc/rc.conf, sendmail fusses and times out trying to resolve it's hostname. My solution was to set the hostname to curly.howse.homeunix.net. Probably not a good idea for a variety of reasons. Then, suddenly, no mail was being delivered to charles. I found out that I needed to create and edit /etc/mail/relay-domains and local-host-names, because I was relaying through howse.homeunix.net and it was refusing the connection. I placed howse.homeunix.net in each file. I also changed the 127.0.0.1 line in /etc/hosts from localhost.howse.homeunix.net localhost to just localhost. That may not have changed anything...I'm not sure. Mail works now, except the mail I get comes from Charlie Root [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than [EMAIL PROTECTED] I need to fix that. I'd really like to get *ALL* this straightened out like it should be. KEY POINT!!! == I'd prefer to leave the hostname as curly. What has to be done?

kernel option to increase max open files
Hi, folks. I've got a 2.2.2 machine which I can't currently upgrade, due to funding issues. This machine handles a lot of mail, and I am lately finding dmesg output to be full of file: table is full messages, and entries like these in the sendmail log: SYSERR(UID0): readqf: cannot open dfAAA29006: Too many open files in \ system SYSERR(UID0): Cannot open hash database /etc/aliases: Too many open \ files in system So I figure I need to increase the max number of open files available. I've looked around, and it appears I have two different options: 1) Kernel option options OPEN_MAX=### which sets the max number of open files per user (which would be 'root' in this case, as that's who sendmail runs as). 2) a login.conf class setting assigned to root. The 'openfiles' setting seems somewhat equivalent to the OPEN_MAX option. However, I am not certain that limits set in login.conf apply to a process being run by a user that didn't log in (sendmail being started by init at boot, rather than from root's login session). I welcome any thoughts/advice on this matter, as I don't want to try either of these changes without having done due diligence.

I did a manage bookmarks and from the tools menu, I exported them. This is also a handy way of sharing them between machines. Then, I stopped mozilla, removed .mozilla, restarted mozilla and from the manage option I imported the old bookmarks. This added a new personal toolbar, which isn't real.

[possibly OT]: anyone attempt running IBm DB2 for Linux, under emulation on FreeBSD
I as recently approached by a client of mine who is running (very happily so) a FreeBSD machine as a small-business server (using samba for file/print sharing, squid for proxy gateway, email, mySQL, and a few others). The machine more than services the 50 or so people using it, and maintains load averages usually less than 1. They have recently bought into an application software which requires IBM's DB2 database back-end; it has been proposed that they install a second server running linux explicitly for the purpose of running IBM's DB2 for Linux. The key question now being Can someone run IBm's DB2 for Linux, on a FreeBSD box? If so, will it maintain stability even if at the loss of some performance versus running it on an actual Linux box? Does anyone have any experience with this, and/or has anyone out there tried this themselves yet?

Clues welcome, people,
Sorry, I didn't read you message rigth.
I beleave you are looking for something like:
find /usr/ports -e grep -l ncount {} \;
This seaches for files with the word ncount inside.

Porting to FreeBSD
Hi there! I found many interesting Linux programs on sourceforge.net and other sites, but they're not in the ports collection. So I thought I'll port some of these to FreeBSD. However, I'm still pretty new to FreeBSD and I never ported anything. I can't even compile most of the programs on my system, and I'm almost sure it has to do with dependencies in 99% of all cases.

You can probably hack something around grep/awk, i.e.:
: g:/etc/mail grep -n 'otenet' *
: gothmog.cf:154:DSmail.otenet.gr
: gothmog.mc:8:define(`SMART_HOST', `mail.otenet.gr')
: sendmail.cf:154:DSmail.otenet.gr
:
: g:/etc/mail grep -n 'otenet' * | awk -F: '{print vi +$2,$1}'
: vi +154 gothmog.cf
: vi +8 gothmog.mc
: vi +154 sendmail.cf
Filter the output of that last pipeline through sh(1) and vi will fire
up as many times as necessary:
: g:/etc/mail grep -n 'otenet' * | awk -F: '{print vi +$2,$1}' | sh

Re: Uninstalling Port installed applications
in message [EMAIL PROTECTED], wrote Michael Lee thusly... Say, there are 5 applications -- A, B, C, D, E Installing A depends on B,C,D, and E. ... Supposed that E was also required by another application F which was already installed in the system, I wonder if I type 'make deinstall' under /usr/port/xxx/A and try to uninstall A, will the port system help me uninstall B,C,D but not uninstall E ? I don't think the port system could help by itself, either like portupgrade or Add/Remove Software on Windows. If you know the dependencies, just do it yourself one port at a time. There are two ways: pkg_delete(1) (pkg_deinstall(1) comes from portupgrade(1)) make deinstall, ports(7). By default, pkg_delete will not remove a dependency (in your case any of B, C, D, E) if the dependent port still exists (A) in the ports database (/var/db/pkg). You can force it though via -f option, and recursively delete ports via -r. See pkg_delete(1) for details. The deinstall target (run in the directory of to-be-deinstalled-port) will deinstall the dependency port, B, C, D, or E, regardless of existence of a dependent port, A. If the dependent port exists, a warning message will be generated informing you of the fact. That has been my experience of w/ the ports so far. Back to your case... - Remove A (either by pkg_delete or make deinstall) - Remove B, C, D. - Done (since you need E, no need to do anything else). PS: You should consider installing portupgrade only if to keep the ports database current, like i do. - Parv -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

diskless/pxe booting problem cont. aka cannot open /dev/ttyv0
Ok, the last problem I was experiencing when the console would just freeze while the kernel was attempting to do the nfs mount was due to a firewall rule. At least, that's what I gathered after scrolling through a tcpdump capture. I don't have the message handy, but it seemed to have been due to expecting an icmp response that never came. Anyways, I'm past this part now. My problem now is that the boot process is hanging during what appears to be rc.i386 initialization.

Third Party Patches that link to OpenSSL
Hello I've written an OpenSSL plugin for gaim that allows gaim to use the OpenSSL libraries that come installed with FreeBSD. Gaim is a GPL application, OpenSSL is BSD licensed, and apparently there are license issues to deal with as a result. http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#LEGAL2 They've said that unless the gaim project sanctions the use of OpenSSL with their code, that I should not release the code. Apparently that would require contacting all of the prior developers to get their permission.

problems with libc_r, icu, and gtk-gnutella
First off, I'm somewhat of a newbie; sorry if this is daft... I have been trying to get gtk-gnutella cvs to compile with some new (internationalization) functions, using ICU. Neither of the versions currently in ports (devel/icu devel/icu2) work; version 2.6.1 passes configure tests for gtk-g, but produces a non-working executable. The best indicator I can seem to find of the error is messages I get from the compiler (or linker) when icu is compiled. These are as follows: /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! setkey(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: this program uses gets(), which is unsafe. /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: mktemp() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! des_setkey(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! encrypt(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: tmpnam() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: this program uses f_prealloc(), which is not recommended. /usr/lib/libc.so: WARNING! des_cipher(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc.so: warning: tempnam() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() I would like to just assume that icu is broken for this platform, but it passes it's check suite perfectly. Also, I've had a ton of programs give such errors and work fine. (I also assume it works for others.) The exact problem might be better pointed out by messages I get while compiling gtk-g. These are as follows: /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: WARNING! setkey(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: warning: this program uses gets(), which is unsafe. /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: warning: mktemp() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: WARNING! des_setkey(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: WARNING! encrypt(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: warning: tmpnam() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: warning: this program uses f_prealloc(), which is not recommended. /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: WARNING! des_cipher(3) not present in the system! /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4: warning: tempnam() possibly used unsafely; consider using mkstemp() I'm working on this because I intend to update the gtk-gnutella port and would like to see this work for other people. I'd also be willing to update the icu2 port, if I can figure out what the issue is. I was thinking to mention some specifics about my platform, but can't think of much that would be of use, except that it is STABLE running SMP, as I think this is probably thread related.

Re: [possibly OT]: anyone attempt running IBm DB2 for Linux, under emulation on FreeBSD
Quoting Nathan Vidican [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Can someone run IBm's DB2 for Linux, on a FreeBSD box? If so, will it maintain stability even if at the loss of some performance versus running it on an actual Linux box? Does anyone have any experience with this, and/or has anyone out there tried this themselves yet? I have heard numerous success stories running Oracle for Linux under FreeBSD... but have thus far been unable to find anyone trying IBM DB2 with FreeBSD. While not completely related, I have been running DB2 at work for a test database running on Gentoo Linux. Since Gentoo is not an RPM based system (DB2 is only distributed as RPMs I believe) I had to install RPM, but after that, this doc walked me through getting it installed: http://kjeldahl.net/db2/ So, the point being, is that DB2 *can* work on non-RPM systems. For FreeBSD, you'd need to install RPM: $ whereis rpm rpm: /usr/ports/archivers/rpm ..and try to follow some of the above instructions. With the Linux capabilties installed, I'd think it might work. I'm still Goggling your query myself It looks like someone has successfully installed the DB2client on FreeBSD (they installed on a Linux box, and moved the files over) http://www.khmere.com/resume/bsd_db2.html Also, this page seems to infer that it's been done, but the link to BSD Today takes you to serverwatch.com, and I can't find the article there. http://daily.daemonnews.org/view_story.php3?story_id=1289 Here an IBM'r comments on the viability: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2003-March/000533.html If I were you, I'd post this question to: http://www.idug.org/idug/db2/listserver.cfm Regards P -- http://lefttochance.com/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: kernel option to increase max open files
Hi, Run sysctl -w kern.maxfiles= to what ever value is needed. To get it updated at startup you can put a line like kern.maxfiles= in /etc/sysctl.conf to have the change on every reboot. You may also have to edit /etc/login.conf and adjust any openfiles= lines that might be lowering the per-process limit. By default the openfiles value is unlimited OR infinite. Regards SSR From: John Fox [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: kernel option to increase max open files Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2003 10:09:14 -0700 Hi, folks. I've got a 2.2.2 machine which I can't currently upgrade, due to funding issues. This machine handles a lot of mail, and I am lately finding dmesg output to be full of file: table is full messages, and entries like these in the sendmail log: SYSERR(UID0): readqf: cannot open dfAAA29006: Too many open files in \ system SYSERR(UID0): Cannot open hash database /etc/aliases: Too many open \ files in system So I figure I need to increase the max number of open files available. I've looked around, and it appears I have two different options: 1) Kernel option options OPEN_MAX=### which sets the max number of open files per user (which would be 'root' in this case, as that's who sendmail runs as). 2) a login.conf class setting assigned to root. The 'openfiles' setting seems somewhat equivalent to the OPEN_MAX option. However, I am not certain that limits set in login.conf apply to a process being run by a user that didn't log in (sendmail being started by init at boot, rather than from root's login session). I welcome any thoughts/advice on this matter, as I don't want to try either of these changes without having done due diligence.
