Hello Dima,

Why do you need to change it?
is it for IRCD server ?
If yes..then you have to change many things, not only the output of ulimit 
-a,

However,
vi /etc/sysctl.conf
kern.maxfiles=16384
kern.maxfilesperproc=8192

which will set:
Number of max filedescriptors for the kernel
and
max number of filedescriptors per process respectively.

these changes will change the output you are asking for..
If it does, then please let me know about it,
as last time i have done these changes was in FreeBSD 4.8R


Best Luck.
