/proc/sys/fs/file-max contains the max files. The default is 4096. Try
changing it to 8192, that should do the trick.

BTW on a RaQ550 /proc/sys/fs/file-max contains 8192...
I noticed on a Raq2 the file is located at /proc/sys/kernel/file-max. It lists the file max at 1024. Any hazards of changing this to a higher number? Not that I've had a problem, just curious.
