Thanks for the reply, Doug. Here's what I'm currently running with:

default|root|daemon:\
        :cputime=infinity:\
        :datasize=infinity:\
        :stacksize=infinity:\
        :memorylocked=infinity:\
        :memoryuse=infinity:\
        :filesize=infinity:\
        :coredumpsize=infinity:\
        :maxproc-cur=infinity:\
        :openfiles-cur=256:\
        :priority=0:\
        :requirehome:\
        :umask=022:\
        :tc=auth-defaults:

It's still happening, intermittently, but I can't see anything which I could
change there which will affect this problem. 

Cheers,

Ian.
