been getting LOTS of these lately.
i didn't see MAXQUERIES mentioned anywhere on d-u in the last
six months, so i thought i'd ask to find out if i'm the only
one. :)
am i? and, what needs reconfiguring?

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #14 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
What's a RUNLEVEL? It's simply a big-time setting group;
runlevel 2 might have a full-blown web server plus X running,
and runlevel 3 might be ssh-only, for secure logins. Check
/etc/inittab (and /etc/rc<RUNLEVEL>.d/*) for details on how
yours are set up. And try "man runlevel".
