[ntp:hackers] AIX 5.3: too many open files

I'm trying to test the latest ntpd on an AIX-5.3 box and when I start
ntpd I get lots of messages of the form:

23 Jun 17:45:09 ntpd[344266]: Error duplicating file descriptor: Too many open files

I have already tripled the value of nofiles in /etc/security/limits and
that does not seem to make a difference.

Any ideas on where I should look next?
