Error when using telnet

Hi All,

I'm getting an error when I try to telnet to a specific system. Has anyone ever seen the below error before? I'm running AIX 5.3.08 and connecting to another unix system:

Error:

Socket number: 3
Max number of file descriptors: 512
FD_ISSE....ja Case nn on: 1
Mysterious EOF: No such file or directory

Maybe not the same but...
A Notes server on AIX... exhausted all resources.( Could not connect anymore). I root on the console could do nothing but reboot...Later found out that the Notes admin if connected had just to do a stop/start for things to work normally again...

What is the operating system on the **other unix server ? If that is hpux , there is a parameter called nfiles there .. Try changing it to a higher value.

Regards,

Kaps

ulimit -n

This value can be set per user in /etc/security/limits. You can also change this value per user using the smitty user fast path.
