There's probably a better way to do this, but I added "ulimit -n 8192" into
my startup script for cyrus, just before saslauthd and master are started...

I am currently getting this error from master:

Apr 28 12:02:37 weathersby master[31748]: setrlimit: Unable to set file
descript
ors limit to -1: Operation not permitted
Apr 28 12:02:37 weathersby master[31748]: retrying with 1024 (current
max)

And then later I get an error about too many open files.  How can I up
the number of allowed open files?  I am running linux and cyrus 2.1.12.
