We are in need of expanding the # of open files on an SE/30 system acting as an AppleShare server. According to Tech Note 216, the max. open files on an AppleShare server is 160 (Mac II-class machine, 2MB or more or RAM). In our multi-user database application, each user can easily have 30 or more files open. Add 10-12 users, and you start getting all sort of wild errors (File access denied, File not found, etc.) While we are going to split applications among 2 server machines, it is going to take a while to get an additional Mac for a server. To stall off problems, I need to up the limit of open files the server can handle. Anyone with any experience in this area, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you. Anyone at Apple that is able to provide insight, your comments are also welcome. Thank you very much. (Note: this is a re-post. The original and any replies were lost Wednesday in a disk crash.
