this is killing communications once in a while....(the message No buffer
available)...
we stopped runnung named on the server to preserve memory....

	What can I do to resolve it on 2.1.6R (will be upgrading to 2.2b soon)

My kernel details"

options     "CHILD_MAX=512"
options     "OPEN_MAX=1024"
options     "MAXMEM=262144"
options     "NMBCLUSTERS=4096"
options     "EXTRAVNODES=30000"   <----- this is not a real option on
2.1.6
options     "NBUF=4096"

3c509 and ahc controllers.  I also run "/usr/sbin/sysctl -w
kern.maxvnodes=30000"
at boot time....

Is theresomething I am missing ?

Thanks.
