im still not able to change the file descriptor in my squid box, i have found an article on the internet advising me to do the following :
vi /usr/include/bits/types.h and then add the line # define __FD_SETSIZE 8192
Why did you edit this file? (no longer required).
after that , i have saved the file, and put this command on the shell ulimit -HSn 8192
OK.
then i have compiled the squid., anyway,, when i tail to the cache.log file i still see the file descriptor as 1024 which means the modification i made didnt take place.
Did you also set the ulimit before starting Squid?
All of this is explained in detail in the FAQ.
