When I try to connect to smbd on a SUN Solaris 2.6 with a 
running oracle database, I get the folloing error:

[1999/03/25 10:25:30, 1] smbd/files.c:file_init(219)
  file_init: Information only: requested 10000 open files, 1014 are available.
[1999/03/25 10:26:07, 0] locking/shmem_sysv.c:sysv_shm_open(563)
  Can't create or use semaphore [1]. Error was No space left on device
[1999/03/25 10:26:07, 0] locking/locking.c:locking_init(169)
  ERROR: Failed to initialise share modes!

Samba on a parallel machine (same hardware, same Solaris 
2.6) runs without problems.

What means the "No space left on device" (There is enough 
space on the disk)? What's the problem?
