sigh.

I've just changed my workstation from a SunOS box to a NetBSD/Sparc box.

I've got procmail running and I'm having ulimit problems that are causing
procmail to fail when forking:

  7018 procmail CALL  fork
  7018 procmail RET   fork -1 errno 35 Resource temporarily unavailable
  7018 procmail CALL  wait4(0xffffffff,0xf7fffa64,0,0)
  7018 procmail RET   wait4 -1 errno 10 No child processes
  7018 procmail CALL  sigprocmask(0x1,0x2000)
  7018 procmail RET   sigprocmask 0
  7018 procmail CALL  sigaction(0xe,0xf7fff968,0xf7fff958)
  7018 procmail RET   sigaction 0
  7018 procmail CALL  setitimer(0,0xf7fff988,0xf7fff978)
  7018 procmail RET   setitimer 0
  7018 procmail CALL  sigsuspend(0)

The means all my mail gets dumped to my main mail box :( and it's a
nightmare trying to keep up!


This process is being run as myself

neil      7081  0.0  0.4   228  268 ??  Ss   10:57AM    0:00.47 mail -r
noise-request@office.demon.net -d neil (procmail)

I have these limits:

core file size (blocks)  0
data seg size (kbytes)   16384
file size (blocks)       0
max memory size (kbytes) 59608
stack size (kbytes)      512
cpu time (seconds)       -1
max user processes       532
pipe size (512 bytes)    1
open files               255
virtual memory (kbytes)  16896


This is really a pain, has anyone had and fixed this problem, or can I hack
the kernel to up the limits. 


Regards,
Neil.
