Hi folks.

Today I've got the following error message:

fluke /kernel:  proc: table is full
fluke inetd[73]: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable.

On any command, I'm getting 'No more processes'.  What's wrong and how to 
fix it?
About my system:
FreeBSD 2.0-950412 on the Everex 486DX33 with 16 MB RAM.  I have the 
following packages installed:
gated
Pine-3.91/Pico
ELM 2.4
Majordomo-1.93
CERN httpd 3.0
There's no X stuff.  Since April, I have not had any problems.  By today, 
the system was up for 9 days.
Any info/hints will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
