Thanks for your reply DrO!

By looking for a solution, I discovered that the "/sbin/init" script I was using to startup sc_serv at boot, does NOT consider limits.conf to set, for example, the maximum open files for processes run at system level.

Since I'm using Ubuntu Server and Webmin and both are configured to use the "Upstart" boot system, I used Webmin to create a simple Upstart script for sc_serv and of course I included the "limit nofile n n" stanza (parameter) to alter system's default 1024 open files limitation.

Now when my server (re)boots sc_serv is loaded with the desired limit and seems to work OK!

Thanks again!
Cande
