So I can set MAX_KMAPENT and MAXPROC with out worrying about MAX Users.

In 1.6, what is the proper way to change MAX_KMAPENT?  I see some posts
saying to increase it and some say that it can't be increased?

Is         options    MAX_KMAPENT=2048

a valid entry in my config file for the kernel?

Thanks
Frank
