Thanks for the suggestion. We will try uvsh the next time we have the failure. Last night we had the problem occur for 50 mins. Because it continued for so long we were able to have users in our various locations make multiple attempts to login from multiple PCs. Surprisingly, some locations claimed they could not login at all, others claimed that some PCs could be logged in while other could not. Either our assumption that the problem affects all users is false or the problem occurred many times but each time for only a short period of time. Once again users already in Universe noticed no problems and no unusual locks we noted when we used the command "list.readu every". "analyze.shm -s" does not show any unusually high numbers of Collisions. Are there any log files we should be checking? We are more puzzled than ever.

The 'uv' command is basically a small front ender to the 'uvsh' executable, which is really the guts of universe. The uv command does little more (for universe) then to check ulimit settings, increasing them when necessary, then issuing an execve() call to uvsh. If you bypass 'uv' and just use 'uvsh', does the problem still occur? Your universe configurables seem reasonable, as well as your kernel params, but I do recall an issue whereby the OS would disallow exec's (and /or forks) due to system resource exhaustion, although it has been a while and I cannot recall the details.
