I've modified /etc/system to include:
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=7
 and rebooted... but I still get the exact same error. What else must be changed for Solaris 8 ?

	I saw a problem similar to mine on this thread: http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2006/08/msg00667.html <http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2006/08/msg00667.html>; 	My situation may be a little different though. In my case I've been tasked with running a hobbit instance in parallel with an existing bb4 instance ON THE SAME HOST. I've modified my hobbitserver.cfg to run on port 1985 but I get the same error in /var/log/hobbitlaunch.log as David observed. A section of the logs follows (similar messages repeat): 	 	2006-09-27 12:48:56 hobbitlaunch starting

	2006-09-27 12:48:56 Cannot setup client channel
	2006-09-27 12:48:56 Task hobbitd terminated, status 1 	 	Help? I'm not comfortable tweaking kernel parameters. Can someone walk me through it? Should it solve my problems? Can hobbit and bb4 co-exist on the same host?
