semaphores - solved -- another problem

Greg / list ,
i changed the solaris system parameters, i can increase the processes param now....there's another problem i'm facing, i am NEVER able to shutdown the instance cleanly !! always the background processes remain and i have to kill each of them and also kill the semaphores as you have specified...

is it a know problem with solaris ?

Regards
rahul
