irfan, 

this is the new /proc/ filesystem in my box.

cache:/proc/sys/fs# ls
binfmt_misc/  dquot-max     file-max      inode-max     inode-state   super-nr
dentry-state  dquot-nr      file-nr       inode-nr      super-max
cache:/proc/sys/fs# cat file-max 
4096
cache:/proc/sys/fs# cat inode-max 
8192
cache:/proc/sys/fs# 

and still i get a 256 value for fds on squid

-marlon

ps. anyone running squid on the new 2.2.x linux kernels?
