We have two VAX (I hope I don't get some flame telling me it's Vax!) 11/750. We have BSD 4.3 overlayed with SUN's 3.4 NFS. It all seems to work well for the most part, except that the machine is unreliable! The vaxens hang about once a day. Generally, there is the message get_myaddress: socket: No buffer space available that appears after the login name is typed at the login prompt. We have traced it down a bit and libc contains a routine called get_myaddress. get_myadress contains a call to socket to try to determine the system's IP address. Does anybody have ideas for causes/cures? It is becoming increasingly annoying. Thanks much, Scott ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |Scott L.
