samba and clearcase (PR#7829)

[Van Liedekerke Franky]

Hi Jeremy,

thanks for the tip but ...(there's always a but)
if I do this (increase MAX_OPEN_FILES to 1024), I get an error in
log.smb: 
Can't create or use IPC area. Error was File exists

I'm using FAST_SHARE_MODES to compile samba. Does this take up too much
space or is there something else wrong?


Bye,
