Out of file descriptors (ITS#165)
Hi everybody,
I have an LDAP 1.2.1 server that has problems when running out of file
descriptors. Running truss (Solaris strace), it shows that it's trying like
crazy to open a file descriptor to log something.
I think openldap should be more resilient to this problem. I'm currently
studying the best way to fix this problem. One way would be to call
openlog() with the LOG_NDELAY flag, so that it already has a fd:
LOG_NDELAY Open the connection to syslogd(1M)
immediately. Normally the open is
delayed until the first message is
logged. This is useful for pro-
grams that need to manage the order
in which file descriptors are allo-
cated.
Any hints?
Thanks,
bert hubert.
