Well after battling numerous other problems, I finally have what (I
think) is a working version of the Hobbit server.  Although I think I
have everything configured properly, I'm unable to start it.  I get the
following in hobbitlaunch.log:

2006-06-15 16:05:11 hobbitlaunch starting
2006-06-15 16:05:11 Loading tasklist configuration from
/usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg

2006-06-15 16:05:11 Setting up hobbitd channels
2006-06-15 16:05:11 Could not attach shm Permission denied
2006-06-15 16:05:11 Cannot setup status channel
2006-06-15 16:05:11 Task hobbitd terminated, status 1


I've tweaked the shmseg setting in /etc/system (7 didn't work, I ended
up at 10), but from reading the list archives it seems that I may need
to tune shmmni and shmmax as well.  Any truth to this, or am I barking
up the wrong tree?

Thanks,
