I am sorry, I did not explain myself very well.

At the moment, if you want to increase the number of open files that Samba
allows, you modify MAX_OPEN_FILES or some such and recompile.

I would like a command in smb.conf like:

max open files = 250

This I could put in a per client config file with %m and have different
users with different max open files ...
