Operating System Requirements
Chapter 2 Computer System Requirements 41
The tcp_smallest_anon_port controls the number of simultaneous connections
that can be made to the server. When
rlim_fd_max has been increased to above
4096, this value should be decreased by adding a line to the
/etc/init.d/inetinit file similar to the following :
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_smallest_anon_port 8192
The tcp_slow_start_initial parameter should be inspected if clients will
predominately be using the Windows TCP/IP stack.
DNS and NIS Requirements (UNIX Only)
Prior to installation, it is necessary to have configured the DNS resolver and NIS
domain name.
The DNS resolver is typically set by the file
/etc/resolv.conf. However, also
check the file
/etc/nsswitch.conf and, on Solaris, /etc/netconfig to ensure
that the DNS resolver will be used for name resolution.
If you are not already using NIS, you will also need to set the default NIS domain
name. Typically, this is done by placing the NIS domain name in the file
/etc/defaultdomain and rebooting or by using the domainname command.
