We are running stock SunOS 3.5 on a Sun 3/60 (diskless) and we keep getting
the error message "text: table is full" error message after our Suns have
been up a bit.  When this happens, the OS kills our processes.  I have
even gotten these error messages when I have only 1 shell running and I am
the only person on the machine.  There are not a whole lot of other root
processes sitting around either.  How do you make your text table bigger?
(We are a binary site).  I tried increasing the number of our users in our
kernel to no avail thinking that might increase the size of the kernel tables.
Here is the head of our kernel config file
