Hi there ...

Guess the subject says it all.

My setup is a P54C 120MHz with 64MB RAM running
2.2.1-RELEASE.

Every now and again I get

vmstat: kvm_openfiles: Cannot allocate memory

Does this have something to do with the
MAX_USERS setting in the kernel src?

Why does this box 'run' out of memmory?

Thanks

-Jacques
