Hello,

I setup a bbs system in my FreeBSD 2.2.6 box(P166, 32MRAM), 
the following message appears when about 100 people login.

[begin paste message]
inetd in realloc(): warning: junk pointer, too low to make sense.

FreeBSD (bbs.zju.ml.org) (ttypc)

login:
[end paste]

And at this time, I can't get mail from its POP3 port. nor can I FTP
to the box, And this problem will continue unless I reboot the machine.

Anyone can tell me what I can do with it?

Another question:

When about more than 60 people login as bbs, then they can NOT sendmail,
enter chat room, etc. It says "can not fork".
While users with uid other than  'bbs' can still do anything he likes.
I have re-compile the kernel and set the config file like:
maxusers        32
options         CHILD_MAX=512
options         OPEN_MAX=512

And pstat shows: (when about 100 logins)
[sco@bbs sco]$ pstat -T
557/1064 files
67M/73M swap space

What can I do now? In a Linux system, the speed become very slow when 60 people
online, but they can do anything if they want to wait.

Thanks in advance.

Please reply to my mailbox, because I just change my mail account and temperaly
cancel the mailing-list.
mailto:sco@bbs.zju.ml.org

Yours Geng.
