[Paul Robert Marino]

well her is the section from that file that talks about it
# In order to make more file descriptors available
# to the directory server, first make sure the system
# hard limits are raised, then use ulimit - uncomment
# out the following line and change the value to the
# desired value
# ulimit -n 8192


if you increase both the hard and soft limit there is no reason to run 
the ulimit command keep in mind the soft limit is the default.
