Is there a limit to create sockets on UNIX??

No shit, that's why I said "some systems".  Since he was seeing EMFILE,
he was obviously working on a system limited by a static limit on the
number of file descriptors that any one process can open.

That sounds like a static limit to me, albeit a large one.

>Possible counterexamples: System V Release 4

No, S5R4 works the same way SunOS 4.1 does.
