Hi!

I'm using the FreeBSD 3.4 release. When trying to view "Places all over
the world" vic quits with the following message just after showing the
first few video sources:


33 [root] vic-2.8: ./vic 224.2.172.238/51482
shmat: Too many open files
34 [root] vic-2.8:


What does this mean? How can I resolve the problem?

On my SUN vic sees about 13 video sources in that group.
ulimit reports the following:

43 [root] vic-2.8: ulimit -a
core file size (blocks)     unlimited
data seg size (kbytes)      524288

max memory size (kbytes)    unlimited
open files                  1064
