No, you have a Sun-3/160 running SunOS; SunOS is not 4.2BSD. It is *based on* 4.2BSD, and hence inherits some of its bugs, but has some fixed and other new ones thrown in. In particular, you are running one of the SunOS releases that has the text table bug added. The best solution is to upgrade to a more recent SunOS. You can also delay the inevitable by recompiling the kernel with a larger NTEXT, either by changing the rule that determines NTEXT from the configuration-file `maxusers' parameter (found in `param.c'), or by raising maxusers directly. Short of doing that, the fix is to reboot. -- In-Real-Life: Chris Torek, Univ of MD Comp Sci Dept (+1 301 454 7163) Domain: chris@mimsy.umd.edu Path: uunet!mimsy!chris
