Re: Tuning FreeBSD
You can just set the value in /boot/loader.conf such as: kern.maxusers=50 and reboot -Derek At 03:35 PM 8/19/2006, Lisa Casey wrote: Hi Folksm I'm getting these on a FreeBSD 5.3 box: Aug 19 15:46:32 radius sm-mta[12850]: k7JJk1rt012776: SYSERR(UID0): fill_fd: disconnect: cannot open /dev/null: Too many open files in system Aug 19 15:46:40 radius kernel: kern.maxfiles limit exceeded by uid 0, please see tuning(7).

Just raise the kern.maxfiles sysctl if you really need to do so. I would rather search for the reason why I need to allow kernel to open such many number of files. Allowing it to open too many files can lead to a Denial of Service. radius# sysctl -w kern.maxusers=50 sysctl: oid 'kern.maxusers' is a read only tunable sysctl: Tunable values are set in /boot/loader.conf My /boot/loader.conf is a zero byte length file.

Re: Tuning FreeBSD
Thanks. I set kern.maxusers in loader.conf and that seems to have helped. I hated seeing stuff like that on a weekend! Lisa Casey ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Tuning FreeBSD for HIGH PERFORMANCE Web Server
Check out /etc/make.conf choose the closest arc for your proc and go with either O2 or O3 optimizations. When using O3 you may end up with a few problems. I have had a bit of problems compiling some things when I optimized some X stuff using O3. I have not had any problems with O2 so far.
