SubjectMore FD's in 2.0.33
I'm looking for the *RIGHT* way to get more open files in 2.0.33.  
I've downloaded Michael O'Reilly's patch, but it had problems with
portmapper (on RedHat 5.0 w/ all the latest updates) crapping
out--apparently due to bad file descriptors, which I think was due to
the dynamic allocation done in this patch. So, since then I've tried
to just change the #define's that I believe matter, namely:

NR_OPEN in limits.h
OPEN_MAX in limits.h
__FD_SETSIZE in posix_types.h
__FD_SETSIZE in gnu/types.h

And then if I put this in rc.local:

echo 32768 > /proc/sys/kernel/inode-max
echo 8192 > /proc/sys/kernel/file-max

Is this the Right Way? I'm still having trouble w/ portmapper (and
hence rpc.nfsd & rpc.mountd) At the moment I'm staring w/ a clean
2.0.33 again and would like some real advice on # of open files
before I screw around too much more.

Thanks!
