RTC2.0beta1 client Linux too many open files loading ws

I've installed the RTC 2.0 beta 1 client on Fedora Core 10 Linux.
RTC is installed into an existing Eclipse JEE 3.4.2 that's also running CDT 5.02
(JVM is IBM Java 1.6)

When I try to load a rather large component (7000 files) I sometimes/often get a failure with a dialog box including the words "too many open files".

Have I missed a Linux configuration step that's required for RTC ?

P.S. In case its relevant, the same RTC version on Windows load the same component just fine.

Try googling for "linux too many open files". This provides a lot of
documentation on how to raise the limit.

Here's a workitem that includes an explanation of how to configure your
system to increase this limit:

Thanks for the link.

On my latest-model Fedora 10 Linux, ulimit -n reports "unlimited".
