Mods were made (and appear in rc16) to close out the descriptor in question after using it during authentication (as I understand it). However, I am still seeing plenty of file descriptors left open in rc16 (one per session). For example, on a Solaris 9 server with 9 IMAP connections open here is an lsof excerpt of dovecot-auth:
How about if you check those imap-login processes that are doing only SSL proxying, do they also have the socket open?
In our environment, we do not allow non-SSL connections. Given that, should I continue to expect to see this behavior? If so, I will probably pursue compiling Dovecot in 64-bit mode on Solaris 10 to get around this dang limit.
I just wanted to know 1) if this latest mod did what was intended, and 2) do 'n' imap-login sessions (SSL) always imply 'n' file descriptors used within dovecot-auth?
I just tried myself, and dovecot-auth keeps only as many auth sockets open as there are imap-login processes accepting new connections..
I assume you mean non-SSL. ?
