We have installed our FTP server in one of our FreeBSD  systems.  All is
running fine, but last night the system started to present the following
error  message:  "Too many open files in  system".  We  suppose  that to
solve the problem we need to recompile  the kernel,  using  different IO
parameters...  But we can't locate the file to change them...


Could anyone help us, please?
Thanks in advance.
