Hi there, 
I run a relatively big squid server (10,000+ users, and 8+GB disk space).
Looks like the squid server runs out of file descriptors:

=====from log files======
squid[24306]: WARNING! Your cache is running out of filedescriptors
=========================

I was told that I should increase maximum-number-of-open-files-allowed in
kernel. Well I increased it to 4096, compiled the kernel (2.1.126),
installed it, but still get the same message :-(

Any ideas?

cheers,
Hossein
