Hello,

My problems with Freebsd continue. I have followed many of the suggestions
in the mailinglist and I still have a problem after a while of the apache
server up with the unable to spawn child processes (hence cgi's and other
spawned programs do not run)

Apache version 1.3.2 w/ Freebsd 2.2.6. Server has 96mb SDRAM, and I have
configured the Inetd the following for DAEMON

daemon:\
        :cputime=infinity:\
        :coredumpsize=infinity:\
        :datasize=infinity:\
        :memorylocked=infinity:\
        :maxproc=infinity:\
        :memoryuse=infinity:\
        :openfiles=infinity:\
        :stacksize=infinity:\
        :priority=0:\
        :requirehome@:\
        :umask=022:\
        :tc=auth-defaults:

Here is what limits -B reports...

(BTW I have ulimit unlimited set...)

I can not imagive hitting 1640 processes which I think is unlimited. 

Resource limits (current):
  cputime          infinity secs
  filesize         infinity kb
  datasize           524288 kb
  stacksize           65536 kb
  coredumpsize     infinity kb
  memoryuse-max    infinity kb
  memoryuse-cur       32768 kb
  memorylocked     infinity kb
  maxprocesses         1619
  openfiles            3240

Can anyone help here?

Thanks
Paul
