I've been growing a large headache on this one, i have a number of LDAP servers behind loadbalancing, since 2 days i constantly get the error: Too many open files. Although I'm not a newbie with linux I'm unable to resolve this, I have took the following stept:
You need to specify nofile for ldap in the /etc/sysconfig/ldap file. For example, I have:
ULIMIT_SETTINGS="-n 16384"
Setting it for the ldap user in /etc/security/limits.conf will not have any effect, since it is root that starts the ldap server (so, the setting should be for root, not ldap).
