I may be out of sync with what is going on, but I had a similar problem due to a system limit being reached. The default number of simultaneous ipcs queues allowed for any user is set to only 8 in RedHat. You may want to increase the value to 32. Check this by running sysctl as root: sysctl kernel.msgmni You can set this value in the /etc/sysctl.conf file, so that it is the system default after a reboot. He are some details from my development machine: [root@gempak3 root]# cat /etc/sysctl.conf # Disables packet forwarding net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0 # Enables source route verification net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1 # Disables the magic-sysrq key kernel.sysrq = 0 kernel.shmall =4294967295 kernel.shmmax =4294967295 kernel.msgmni = 64 [root@gempak3 root]# sysctl -h usage: sysctl [-n] [-e] variable ... sysctl [-n] [-e] -w variable=value ... sysctl [-n] [-e] -a sysctl [-n] [-e] -p <file> (default /etc/sysctl.conf) sysctl [-n] [-e] -A [root@gempak3 root]# sysctl kernel.msgmni kernel.msgmni = 64 Regards, Stephen Sinnis Pelmorex Inc 1 Robert Speck Parkway Mississauga, ON L4Z 4B3 ssinnis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 905-566-9511 - tel. 905-566-5905 - fax.
