Re: max open files



I had similar issue a while back with like the 2.2 or 2.3 series, and part of the database was corrupt. The database couldn't respond to xyz search and I assume would leave the sockets hanging thus use them all up. I ended up rebuilding the database.

Hello,

the problem is, that many clients generate more than 1024 concurrent
sockets to the LDAP service which block the remaining incoming sockets.

I already do all the possible changes to the server (ulimit, sysctl,
etc)
without a solution. All the incoming connections stop at the 1024
concurrent sockets.
The only solution is restarting slapd.

The version of openldap is 2.4.11.

In /var/log/syslog I found the following entry:

Mar  1 14:45:15 ldap1 slapd[25320]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 19:
cannot open /etc/hosts.allow: Too many open files

Do you really need tcp wrapper support?
