you probably just need to increase the resource limits for the account
that your http daemon runs under. i don't know what kind of startup
procedure you're using for the daemon so it's hard to say exactly how
to fix it, but the /bin/sh command for manipulating resource limits is
"ulimit" ("limit" with csh descendants).

if it still blows up after you've upped the limit, it might
be a problem with the cgi module going haywire and opening
new files boundlessly, but that seems pretty unlikely.
