SubjectRe: 2.0.33 : too many open files
Date
There was a file descriptor leak in Samba 1.9.18p7 and before. Upgrade
to 1.9.18p8 and see if that fixes your problem.

I was bitten by the leak and reported the problem to the Samba Team.
Jeremy Allison found the problem and fixed it in 1.9.18p8.

Good luck.
