I've got a host: P2-333 with dual 3c905b cards in it. 128M Ram,... It does a *lot* of network traffic as it hosts one of the Undernet IRC servers as well as a couple of somewhat RAM intensive applications. Normal operating condittions run with appx 96-110M of RAM in use. This machine gets a work out. The problem we are having is that it is continually exploding on the xl0 and xl1 interfaces claiming no memory (see below for the syslogs). I have increased maxusers from 128 to 256 in an attempt to ensure that there was ample resources allocated to kernel tables, but it made absolutely no difference Any suggestions on where to go from here? Thanks for your help, Danny Mitchell Dec 17 09:56:03 voyager /kernel: Out of mbuf clusters - increase maxusers! Dec 17 09:56:03 voyager /kernel: xl1: no memory for rx list -- packet dropped!
