Can't run more then 38 processes? Date: 5 Mar 1997 00:26:59 GMT Organization: Rocky Horror, Barely Legal (Berkeley, CA) Lines: 155 Message-ID: <5fiekj$4d4$1@nntp2.ba.best.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: shellx.best.com Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:36533 In trying to recompile 2.1.7 the maxusers options seems to have no effect. I've set it to 100 and still if I run more then 38 processes I get the error: "bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable" Might I be hitting some silly max process per user quota? -Almost all 38 are owned by one user, me. If so, where can I adjust it or turn it off?
