I am in the process of porting a large security system from System V to Xenix 386 and the programs keep crashing giving me a error 36 EIDRM Identifier Removed. The explaination in the Xenix documentation indicates an exception due to the removal of an identifier from the file system's name space. Please excuse my ignorance, but what exactly does that mean?? I have increased the number of allowable open files and inodes to an unreasonably high level and this seen not to help. Any leads, comments, or offers of help would be greatly appreciated...
