[User is getting a "too many processes" error] I am using "tcsh" for a shell, and when I run the "limit" command, I get "maxproc 30". This seems a bit low. Try becoming root, and in csh or tcsh running "limit maxproc 100", and see if you can actually run enough processes. This number is set to 256 by the kernel in 2.0.17 . I suspect something is turning it down. Bruce
