Hello list!

  7.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE #0: Sun Mar 21 06:15:01 UTC 2010 
root@walker.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

Whenever a program tries to make a directory on this slice it
gets this error

mkdir: spool/text/test: Too many links

This is the slice

/dev/ad4s4d    202G     37G    149G    20%    /news/spool/text

One can create a file without problems just not directories.

Checked sysctl but don't know what to look for. A boot in the right end 
would be helpful.
