Change the ulimit (and all other modifiable kernel parameters) in /etc/system,
not /etc/master.  Under the sysparms label put  ulim_file = (whatever)

Example:

sysparms:
	ulim_file = 64000
	buffers = 400

Look at the documentation for /etc/master and /etc/system to get a listing
of modifiable kernel parameters.
