Can someone please tell me if there is a limit to the number of
simultaneous processes that each user can run on a freeBSD system and a
way to increase this number if there is?
I recently modified a script which pings all 16 ports of our stallion
card sequentially to doing it by running each ping process in the
background.
A similar script written to ping all 4 ports on a different freebsd box
doesn't have the problem.
The error I get is fork: Resource Temporarily unavailable.
hope someone has a bright idea that may fix the problem
TIA

Would some one please stop this spinning ball, I wanna get off.
