Hello,

      I have a probleme with netscape 3 ( and 2 ) on FReeBSD 2.1.5 &
2.1.6:

When a user want to send mail netscape state for 'out of memory' . Of
course this NOT a memory
probleme. ( there are plenty of, and not an ulimit one as I can see)
Root  user got absolutly no probleme.

I notice that when started as user, Netscape make an syslog message:
syslog: /etc/pwd.db:  invalid argument.

No probleme when runing as root.

Any idea ?

Thanks
