Hi all,

su-2.03# route get default
route: writing to routing socket: No buffer space available

Any idea what this means? Does a kernel need a tweak if it's handling a
lot of routes? This machine has about 420.

This same machine also once lost all (!) of its interfaces, ie "ifconfig
-a" returned nothing, not even lo0 or virtual interfaces like ppp0. No
idea what would cause this, either...

The primary function of the machine is to act as a mini NAP, with a few
modems connected to it plus an IP tunnel to a larger NAP, all running BGP
via MRTd. (MRTd may also have something to do with the oddities, but it
hasn't played up before)

The machine runs 3.2-RELEASE, until recently its uptime was several months
and it was steady as a rock. Not sure what's happened...

As you can tell, I'm fairly lost with this one. ;-) Thanks for any help.

Cheers.
