After 8 days of uptime, one of my FreeBSD 2.0.5-RELEASE machines has
started complaining about:

Nov  3 20:00:42 sunra portmap[68]: CALLIT (prog 100004): fork: Resource
temporarily unavailable
Nov  3 20:01:36 sunra last message repeated 7 times
Nov  3 20:02:30 sunra last message repeated 14 times
Nov  3 20:11:52 sunra last message repeated 63 times
Nov  3 20:23:24 sunra last message repeated 59 times
Nov  3 20:33:20 sunra last message repeated 91 times
...and so on.

And depending on when I do a ps, I might see:

USER       PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ  RSS TT  STAT STARTED       TIME COMMAND
daemon      68  2.2  1.7   176  244 ??  SNs  27Oct95   39:57.00 portmap

daemon    3220  1.5  1.5   200  216 ??  SN    8:55AM    0:00.02 portmap
...and so on up to 20 or so processes.  Other times when I do a ps, I
just see one portmap process.

Does anyone know what the problem might be?
