Samir,
Does ulimit -a indicate anything? From my Solaris 8 system:
$ ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) unlimited
stack(kbytes) 8192
coredump(blocks) unlimited
nofiles(descriptors) 256
vmemory(kbytes) unlimited
Also look at '/etc/sysdef':
*
* Process Resource Limit Tunables (Current:Maximum)
*
Infinity:Infinity cpu time
Infinity:Infinity file size
Infinity:Infinity heap size
0x0000000000800000:Infinity stack size
Infinity:Infinity core file size
0x0000000000000100:0x0000000000000400 file descriptors
Infinity:Infinity mapped memory
Hth,
