I tried the master1-example from the pvm3.3.7-distribution on a Sparc-20 with
2 CPUs. It works well with
less than 6 slave programs. Thereafter I got:

libpvm [t40005]: peer_conn() shmat to t4000c: Too many open files

several times. According to the csh-limits 64 open files are possible.
What is going wrong ?
This does NOT happen on a Sparc-2 running also Sol2.3 !!!

I this is a FAQ please point me to the location of the FAQ-list of this
news-group.
