Hello David and all,

It would appear that the patch I applied to correct the "No buffer space"
errors didn't help out any.  In fact, it seemed to make matters worse.
I compiled a new kernel with the patch a couple of days ago, and this
morning, we had to reboot our system for some other maintenance, and we
installed the new kernel at the same time.  Within a few hours (versus the
normal several days), the following occurred in our logs:

May 18 19:20:01 calico named[283]: socket(SOCK_RAW): No buffer space available
May 18 19:20:01 calico named[283]: socket(SOCK_RAW): No buffer space available
May 18 19:20:02 calico /kernel: pid 283 (named), uid 0: exited on signal 6
 (core dumped)

This happened while I wasn't around, but one of my co-admins saw that
other things were getting similar errors, and he ended up having to reboot
the system again.  It's still booted under the new kernel, but I'm going
to keep my eye on it, and if this happens again, I'll reinstall the old
kernel.

Any other thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
