I've got a perl script doing some p5-sybase stuff for me.. However after a while, it fails with the following error message: .."socket: No buffer space available"... I've seen other reports from other uses getting this problem however no clear responses on a fix. This script used to work find on my 5.0-RELEASE box now I'm trying it on a 5.1-RELEASE box. I admit the new box is a lower spec - less cpu and less memory - so that may affect some of the default sysctl values??? I've tried tweaking a couple of sysctl entries however nothing has gotten me over this hurdle. Below are some relevant(??) sysctls. kern.ipc.maxsockbuf: 1048576 kern.ipc.sockbuf_waste_factor: 8 kern.ipc.nmbufs: 17920 kern.ipc.nsfbufs: 2496 kern.ipc.mbuf_wait: 64 kern.ipc.mbuf_hiwm: 512 kern.ipc.mbuf_lowm: 128 kern.ipc.numopensockets: 94 kern.ipc.maxsockets: 4008 Any suggested tweaks appreciated. Regards, ajt.
