further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed
products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update
release.

Comment 2 moylo 2006-12-05 12:14:43 UTC

It seems that this was fixed in 3.8. but not in 4.4. Centos have an RPM with the
forward patch available in their centosplus repository. Can't this be fixed in
RHEL too?

Comment 4 ratness 2007-01-04 22:19:57 UTC

So this was fixed in RHEL3 (RHBA-2006-0322), and not in 4?  What's the holdup?

Comment 8 Martin Stransky 2007-02-09 15:32:36 UTC

Note:

If you'd like to use this feature, you have to edit /etc/squid/squid.conf (a
max_filedesc directive, it's at end of the file) and set the same value via.
ulimit (#ulimit -n max_filedesc_number). You can check it by "#ulimit -n".
