9673.1	SHMMAX	NNTPD::"[email protected]"	laurence Oberman	`Wed Apr 30 1997 10:26`	2
	The size specified in the sysconfigtab, I believe is in bytes. [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

	Thanks for the reply. Is the measurement in bytes definetely a DIGITAL UNIX default or is it changeable in pages, Jean-Paul

	The unit of shmmax is bytes and is indirectly dictated by the shared memory interfaces defined by the X/Open standards group. We cannot change the unit. --shashi [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]
