FD limit problem

[Tore Glaerum <toreg@paniczone.net>]

 have some problem increasing the FD Limit..

Someone told me to increase maxuers, in the kernel config file..
I increased it from 16 to 256

Before compile: was kern.maxfiles 1172
after compile: was kern.maxfiles 13196

Im compiling ircd, with fdlimit 4096, but... it wont start.
it says: hard fdlimit: 1024

So, do I need to change the hard fdlimit in some files in the kernel
source?
Or, is there another way to increase it...?

Can anyone help me?
