There is a kernal parameter which limits the amount of shared memory per user. Don't know what it's called under Unixware, but look for something like MAXMEM. As a last resort, look for a parameter set to 12582912. Hope that helps, -- Mark. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Mark D.
