IPC - queue problems
Hi,
I´m having a lot of problems when working with message queues, both on HP-UX Systems and Sun Solaris. When we fill a queue with a messages, the system hangs and locks everything that relies on the use of IPC resources. Anyone knows how to eliminate this problem?
Thanks,
Haroldo Teixeira

Hi,
We have a problem with remote printers installed on our server.

Thank you... (2 Replies)
