[users@httpd] accept_mutex_on: No space left on device error

[Kevin <ke...@klawon.org>]

Hello All --

My apache process dies periodically.  This is what I see in the log:

[error] [client 193.2.210.39] client sent HTTP/1.1 request without hostname (see RFC2616 section 14.23): /
accept_mutex_on: No space left on device

This started right around the time of the slapper worm.  At that time, I started to check IPCS and physical
Disk partitions space, including the root; all looked OK.  I then read about the slapper worm, 
updated apache and all was OK.  It has now happened again.  Has anyone seen this or can 
lead me in the right direction?

I am running Covalent release of apache 1.6.0 with the OpenSSL patch, on Solaris 2.7 and JRun 3.0.3.

Any help would be appreciated.
