Im not sure why the other box is not failing, but i can tell you now, that
having only 64 filedescriptors available as your soft limit is going to
cause problems.
Filedescriptors aren't just for opening files, they're used for sockets and
other things too.
You will need to increase your shell limit by typing 'ulimit -n 1024' which
will take effect immediately, and in the long term you can set the entire
system filedescriptor limit to 1024 or greater.
There are two filedescriptor limits: Soft and Hard.
The Soft limits are a warning, and software can usually work around it.
Hard limits are the number of filedescriptors available to you in total.
There is a crash course in filedescriptors on the Squid proxy website
