Not just NetBSD, I have this problem on Linux as well:

After running mldonkey for under 12 hours it has 995 file descriptors allocated 
to sockets (from /proc/mldonkey_PID/fd) and only 13 client and 2 server sockets 
in use (from netstat).  There are 27 file descriptors allocated to shared & 
config files (of which 11 are marked deleted). This is with 
max_opened_connections set to only 200, and mainly downloading.

Summary:  NetBSD: Too many open files

Original Submission:  Hi,

my logfile is filled with endless repetitions of:

+++ Exception BEFORE CONNECT socket failed: Too many open files
Exception socket failed: Too many open files in client connection

What does it mean - how can I solve this problem?

Thanks,
 Andreas

mldonkey is great! I'd be happy to provide some code for it,
but why the heck did you use ocaml and not something less
exotic? :)

I've got the same.. I don't know what's wrong. Since it prints out a handled 
error msg someone of the developers should be able to take a look on it. 
Hopefully ;)

I agree with you....
I have compiled mldonkey for OpenBSD-i386 and the same problem happens.
Just try to reduce your maximum connections...
But this will not solve your problem permanently.
