[Info-ingres] File descriptor soft limit for the NET Server

[Steve]

It seems the default soft and hard limits on 64-bit Solaris 10 are 256 and 65536 respectively.

The soft limit can be set by any user and thus can be different across users. The soft limit change is lost upon logging out, if not added to the user's profile, for example.

To check file limits:
ulimit -Sn
ulimit -Hn

To change the soft limit:
ulimit -Sn 2000

Ingres indicated it needed 614 file descriptors per-process, so I set the soft limit to 2000.
