Hi,

I complied Tor in Cygwin successfully, but when trying to start Tor, I
got the following messages and Tor exits.

Aug 21 20:23:55.890 [notice] Tor v0.1.2.0-alpha-cvs. This is
experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity.
Aug 21 20:23:55.905 [notice] Initialized libevent version 1.1b using
method poll. Good.
Aug 21 20:23:55.905 [warn] set_max_file_descriptors(): Could not set
maximum number of file descriptors: Too many open files
Aug 21 20:23:55.905 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Problem with
ConnLimit value. See logs for details.
Aug 21 20:23:55.905 [err] tor_init(): Reading config failed--see
warnings above.

I also tried to start Tor with the option ConnLimit, such as "tor
ConnLimit 100", but still failed...

Dos anybody here know where the problem is? Any hint? Thanks in advance.

Hanru
