Doctor: "Don't type that." Patient: "Oh, ok..." The system will panic with an 'out of mbufs' message when I run the above nmap command ("ping scan" a class B subnet - my internal IP network). Should this be happening when run as a normal user?? The kernel is pretty stock with maxusers 32, no NMBCLUSTERS option, unneeded devices removed. There is 64M RAM and 256M swap; it is has dual 90MHz P54C's.
