Can anyone give me references to some books? Can anyone give me a reasonable explanation of what all the IPC configuration options do? MSGMNI and MSGTQL seem self-explanatory and seem to behave the way I would expect from their brief descriptions. My attempts to change the other configuration values have generally not had the effect I expected. I am runing SCO Xenix Release 2.2.1 on a 286. Does anyone know of any ways to increase the following parameters: 1) maximum number of open files (NFILE) (currently 400) 2) number of message queues (MSGMNI) (currently 40) 3) number of message headers (MSGTQL) (currently 100) 4) total number of bytes in message queues (currently 8192, but I don't know why) Are these limits eased in the 386 version? -- Peter Jeremy (VK2PJ) peter%stca77@stcns3.stc.oz Alcatel-STC Australia ...!munnari!stcns3.stc.oz!stca77!peter 41 Mandible St peter%stca77@stcns3.stc.oz@uunet.UU.NET ALEXANDRIA NSW 2015
