It means that some program tried to get a file descriptor to open a file, and it failed. You should check the total number of file descriptors with "pstat -T". The display is "x/y files", where x is currently used number of descriptors, and y is the maximum. The maximum should be several thousand (especially for servers and workstations that are going to be running a lot of stuff). > Well, if someone is out there who has any idea, please give me a sign. > I try to run sendmail to get infos and email ... > > Best wishes, > > Gruss O.
