While debugging some custom scripts, I found that 3 of my boxes have  
large hobbitclient.log files.

They contain the same messages:

netstat: sysctl: net.inet.tcp.stats: Cannot allocate memory
netstat: sysctl: net.inet.tcp.stats: Cannot allocate memory
netstat: sysctl: net.inet.tcp.stats: Cannot allocate memory

netstat: sysctl: net.inet.tcp.stats: Cannot allocate memory
netstat: sysctl: net.inet.tcp.stats: Cannot allocate memory
netstat: sysctl: net.inet.tcp.stats: Cannot allocate memory


All three boxen are FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE.

All three are 4.1.2p1.

Do I need to enable this in sysctl.conf?


Thanks,
