SHOW max_connections;
or
SELECT setting FROM pg_settings WHERE name='max_connections';

No. But be sure that you don't set it twice or more in the config file. Be
sure you look at the good one (SHOW config_file; will tell you which one it
is). Be sure you don't include other config file with the include clause.

No.
