try ulimit -u (not plural) just incase. that for sure sounds like a
userland ulimit issue to me. But if you can confirm by including the
output of ulimit -a to make sure its set to acceptable levels.
*I* can't think of anything else that'd cause this on a lightly loaded
machine(I've seen it without ulimits on a machine say under a syn flood
attack or something) so if its not ulimits im 'fraid i cant offer any
further advice :/
