I'm not sure if the StartServers config of 5 will conflict with the
MaxServers of 0.  The point is that you should simply look in your
interchange.cfg file.  All I did was search for "rpc" and "MaxServers"
and found this information.  I'm sure there's some documentation on
ic.redhat.com for what all those parameters mean.  Take a look at
http://interchange.redhat.com/cgi-bin/ic/documentation.html?document=icconfig

As a side note, anyone know if Google is still indexing the mailing
list archives?  I tried a Google search on "rpc MaxServers
site:interchange.redhat.com" and got zero hits. I would expect that to
be false since this very thread mentions both rpc and MaxServers.
Can anyone provide a link to the original thread that discussed the
problem and Mike's workaround?
