I have numerous servers running either netware 5.1, 6.0, or 6.5. Also running different versions of Netshield. I don't have any problems except with one server.
On one server, which has NetWare 6.0 + SP3 + nss patches and Netshield 4.61, the server memory drains to where nothing is left and I start losing resources and dropping connections. When I look at my resources, I"m down to 8% cache buffers. It's mostly used for file services but also hosts GroupWise messenger.
Has anyone else run into this same thing? It also had leaks with previous versions (Netshield 4.60a and 4.60). If you look at the amounts of memory it is requesting, it is completely insane. No other server I've ever seen has had this problem.
Looking for ideas on how to resolve. It has 1.5GB RAM and about 80GB storage, all NSS. Compaq ML370 (generation 1), Dual 1GHz Processor. Here is what I see in my syslog.
