When I set up the systems, I did go through the procedure on page 2-3 of the
A/UX Release Notes for a 4mb system (increse NBUF,NINODE, and NFILE).  According
to the kconfig man page (on-line), you should start allocating using the formula
(8192*#nfs_daemons)/240 which gives for our system 136. ???  According to 
'kconfig -a' we have 500 allocated.  I'll try increasing it to 800 and see if that
helps any.

Thanks,
