Hi,

Check you syslog for messages regarding fork failed or any kernel parm failing.

Might be you have to increase nproc for this problem.

Looks lijk no more processes could be started.

Above lines are from syslog and i dunno see anything related to kernel param error in syslog and plus can i use any command to find out the current load on nproc eg sar or something ...

my nproc is nproc (20+32*MAXUSERS)

MAXUSERS= 128
