Dear all @ misc @ openbsd,

I'm having a problem running Sharity-light under OpenBSD 3.8.

I'm fairly new to this particular BSD variant, so I probably made some
mistakes in configuring the system and/or the application.  I did,
however, search the man-pages, the news groups and google, but to no
avail.  Somewhere I must have overlooked the relevant document, I
suppose.

Just to be clear about the versions: I used OpenBSD 3.8, from the CD
set, and Sharity-light from the ports collection from that same CD set.
Similar, all other related software (e.g. the portmapper) comes from
these CDs or from the ports collection.

The problem is as follows: I try to use Sharity-light (executable:
shlight) to mount a directory from a samba server on a different
computer (named storage), but I get the following error message:

      # shlight //storage/PUBLIC /mnt -n
      error connecting to server: [23] Too many open files in system

It is not 100% clear to me if "system" in this message refers to the
samba server or the local machine.  On the other hand, I can access the
samba server from other platforms (Windows, Linux) without problems and
the samba server itself sees no need to report anything.  I believe
therefore that this error message refers to the local OpenBSD machine.

What did I do wrong ?
Jon
