how to start mlnet-Daemon with custom "openfiles" limit?

MLdonkey needs more than the default number (64) of open
files. Versions  
of mldonkey prior to 2.7.2. would after a few minutes of
running, start  
sending error messages to logfile about no more open files,
and then shut  
down. Since Ver. 2.7.2 the minimum ulimit for open files is
150, MLDonkey  
will refuse to start if ulimit is lower.

As a workaround I could off course increase the limit via
the shell  
command and then invoke the startscript

> limit openfiles 1024 (for bash users "ulimit -n
1024")
> /etc/rc.d/mldonkey start

to let the mlnet-Daemon inherit the settings of the
shell-process.

I would like to have mlnet automatically started at
system-startup. What  
is the proper way, within the framework of the NetBSD
/etc/rc.d startup  
scripts, to start the mlnet-Daemon with more than just 64
maximum open  
files?  That default is way too low.

Thanks for any help with those problems.

Hello,
I would know if there is graphics board compatible with
NetBSD.
I want buy a Nvidia 6600, cause i do some computer graphics.

Thanks a lot.

I'm using a 6600 GT (PCI product ID 0x0140) in a PCIe slot,
except for the 3D it works great under Xorg.

I don't think NetBSD is the best platform for 3d work. 
Every open 3d
driver I know of depends on DRI, which (AFAIK) NetBSD lacks.
 nVidia's
binary (closed) drivers only support Linux, FreeBSD and
Solaris.
Fortunately, (at least under Linux) nVidia's drivers compare
quite
favourably with their Windows counterparts. ATi has no
official support
for FreeBSD.

So, if 3d would "make or break" your BSD
experience, I'd recommend
FreeBSD over NetBSD.  If you just do 2d illustration, like
me (a la gimp,
inkscape) then NetBSD should serve you quite well.

Cheers,

Colin
