Did a google search and [link\|http://folk.uio.no/hakonon/oracle/iouga/doc/html/148.html\|this] has promising looking information about what to adjust before recompiling a kernel with more shared memory handles. Worth a shot at least. Cheers, Ben

It's supposed to control the maximum number of segments allowed. It is shared memory mappings running out, not semaphores or msgs right? David "LordBeatnik"
