9.5.0-P2 under Win XP: warnings about the 'files' limit in Event Log

[Andrey G. Sergeev (AKA Andris)]

Hello fellow list users,


I'm using BIND under the FreeBSD and Windows to build a reliable DNS 
infrastructure in my home and lab network. Today I've upgraded one of 
the Windows XP installations of BIND from 9.5.0-P1 to -P2. Everything 
works like a charm except that there is a one suspicious warning entry 
with ID 2 in the Event Log saying that
------------------------------[Cut]------------------------------
the 'files' limit (2048) is less than FD_SETSIZE (16384), increase 
'files' in named.conf or recompile with a smaller FD_SETSIZE.
------------------------------[Cut]------------------------------

There is no "files" directive in my named.conf under the "options" 
section. It seems to me that the nature of the warning described above 
seems to be strange because the default setting for the "files" is 
"unlimited".

I've tried to subsequently set the "files" option to "16384" and 
"unlimited" but it doesn't help.

Could anyone confirm this and suggest the possible trick to avoid the 
problem?

Thanks.
