If you install mosquitto from the ppa provided by the project, or
through the normal ubuntu repository you will be using upstart. The
line I gave you will need to be added to /etc/init/mosquitto.conf to
allow mosquitto to use more than 1024 files - you should change the
4096 to the value of your choice.

I'm saying that based on the experience of other people on this list
it will not be possible.
