I've just migrated my home servers from Debian etch to lenny and bind9 now gives me this:
named[17207]: max open files (1024) is smaller than max sockets (4096)
Redhat's BTS [1] tells me this is a kernel issue thatshould be solved [2] by the "rlimit: permit setting RLIMIT_NOFILE to RLIM_INFINITY" patch in 2.6.28.
One of my servers (DNS slave) is running the standard Debian 2.6.26 kernel, the other (DNS master) is running 2.6.29-rc6 so that does include that patch. But both show the error!
I'd appreciate your input where to take this.
Cheers, FJP
