Not sure what I did, but when I tried to connect today, everything had blown up and syslog was full of these kind of errors:

Oct 4 00:05:52 Eldritch sbbs: evnt prepackQWK !ERROR 24 (Too many open files) in logon.cpp line 557 (logonstats) opening "/sbbs/ctrl/dsts.dab" access=2
Oct 4 03:11:27 Eldritch sbbs: message repeated 4380 times: [ srvc 0045 IMAP !ERROR 24 accepting connection]


I stopped the BBS and started it again and it seems ok right now.

Any thoughts? (Dont open too many files?)

Thanks!

Sounds like a bug that's been fixed. Looks like you haven't update/re-built since August 6th, and that's the day the bug was fixed. So likely, you just need to update/rebuild sbbs again.

Some sysops were having this issue, and it looked like Digital Man fixed it with an update in August. I'd recommend getting the latest Synchronet dev binaries.
