The config has a large maxusers value (190) and high open_max and child_max (about 300 ea.). Other than that and quotas, not very special. It's got 128M of memory, a BT958 SCSI card, and Asus TP554T (?) MB. Might I have screwed something up? All kernels are built on the same machine from the same source, and 6 other machines with identical hardware and 98M of RAM have been very happy... Is this a known problem?
