Hi all

When I try to exicute the mail command I seem to get the following error
message .

Command:

echo "test from greg" | mailx -s "test" <someones email address>

 I seem to get the following error message from dec threads

%DECthreads bugcheck (version V3.18-150), terminating execution.
% Reason: stkGet: proc stack hard limit too low for initialization
% Running on () on AlphaServer GS320 6/731, 6144Mb; 4 CPUs, pid 374237

Te following Kernel variables are set in the proc section

max_per_proc_stack_size = 33554432
per_proc_data_size = 10737418240
max_per_proc_data_size = 10737418240
max_per_proc_address_space = 10737418240
per_proc_address_space = 4294967296
max_proc_per_user = 16192
max_threads_per_user = 1024000
per_proc_stack_size = 33554432

Also when we try to increase the users ulimit stack size to 8192k we get the
following message:

ulimit exceeds allowable limit.

Is this a bug or is that we have something set wrong in the proc section.

Thanks in advance --greg
