So, I should change 1024 to 16384? And see what happens? Also, is this in mmo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have 2 options: change ulimit for rA user change FD_SETSIZE for rAthena ignore the warning The last two should have the same outcome. Socket limit will be set to ulimit -n which is 1024 (you don't need more concurrent connections that that, do you?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, I have no what the file is called to increase such a limit (or the directory). Finally, if I don't fix this warning, would it cause any issues?

No. But as I said earlier, I don't even remember changing this area in the source to even give me this warning o_O. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
Mystery
Apparently I get this warning:
socket_init: failed to set socket limit to 16384, setting to maximum allowed (original limit=1024, current limit=1024, maximum allowed=1024, error=unknown).
Anyone know what this means or what causes it? o_O
