this is one of the problems. there is no setting ( that i can find ) for kern.maxfilesperproc here are the numbers that come back.
kern.maxvnodes = 33584
kern.maxproc = 2048
kern.maxfiles = 12288
kern.argmax = 65536
On an OSX machine there is no sysctl.conf ( not that i can find ).
nor can i locate /usr/include/bits
this may seem to be an Apple lists question. I thought someone might have known off hand.

On FreeBSD the number of systemwide file descriptors and number of file descriptors per process is controlled via the following sysctls, respectively:
kern.maxfiles kern.maxfilesperproc
You can set them in /etc/sysctl.conf then reboot
kern.maxfiles=65534 kern.maxfilesperproc=8192
or use the sysctl command to set them dynamically:
sysctl kern.maxfiles=65534 sysctl kern.maxfilesperproc=8192
Greetings FYI
MacOSX 10.2.x kern.maxfilesperproc is not changeable. it can only be edited in OSX 10.3.x
thanks for the help.
