Check out:

man sysctl

and

sysctl -a | grep file

on your system. You need to increase the number of files the kernel will permit
to be open at the same time. You should probably also check why you need so
many open files. Have you a lot of users? Have you a lot of processes doing
file operations? Have you got a small number of processes holding many files
open?

If you are running FreeBSD as I think you are, consider upgrading to a version
that sets MAXUSERS automatically, or raise by hand. See the handbook for more
information on how to do that.

Also, consider:

a) Not using HTML on mailing list posts.
b) Giving more, precise information on what you setup is, including environment
information and what you were doing when the error appeared.


Regards.
