Coincidentally I've been getting reports like the following for the last week or so. They are very infrequent, I've found nothing about them in any of the logs in the two cases I've checked, and the WWW interface seems to be working for other people when it hands out these errors to the lucky victims. The server itself has been in continous service for over 9 months and nobody has been messing with it. I'm guessing there's some arbitrary limit like max_workers being hit somewhere, but have no idea what or where. Thanks for any ideas. This is on OpenVMS. Error - unable to initiate communication with LISTSERV (errno=65535, phase=RECEIVE, target=149.68.45.24:2306). The server is probably not started. -Kary
