Argh. I have finally come to the point where i have to pay attention to this nuts and bolts stuff.
I get: ERROR: pltcl: couldn't create pipe: too many open files
Is this the issue that requires setting options and recompiling my kernel like :
<Bruce's article>
FreeBSD
NetBSD
OpenBSD
The options SYSVSHM and SYSVSEM need to be enabled when the kernel is compiled. (They are by default.) The maximum size
ofshared memory is determined by the option SHMMAXPGS (in pages). The following shows an example of how to set the
variousparameters:
options SYSVSHM
options SHMMAXPGS=4096
options SHMSEG=256
options SYSVSEM
options SEMMNI=256
options SEMMNS=512
options SEMMNU=256
options SEMMAP=256
(On NetBSD and OpenBSD the key word is actually option singular.)

It seems there is no easy way to tweak kernel memory configuration stuff in NetBSD. Can someone with some experience
inthis help me out here? Thanks!!
