I must have missed that thread; what ever became of it? I've recently
noticed that my server has had a large number of defunct processes on

if you are running a 2.2 series kernel, you have to recompile the

I've had this "fork: ..." message happen when I had only around 300
processes running. /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max is the only relevant
Hi,
Yes, indeed there have been a huge number of defunct sh processes...
It works now.
Many thanks again!
