You didn't say which operating system Netview is running on. If it is AIX,
then I think you are falling foul of the maximum no. of processes allowed
per user (root is not affected by this). The value can be increased so I
suggest you ask your System Administrator to increase it.

Hello,
My team wants to access our NetView server using Hummingbird Exceed on
their
NT PCs.  I am able to create user IDs and bring up the NetView GUI on my NT
PC.  However, when I login as a user, I get *many* windows that say 'Cannot
start command for application' for IP map, iubsearch, TME 10 NetView
Windows
Help, and just about every application you can imagine.  A message on the
user console also appears: 'The fork function failed.  Too many processes
already exist.'
If I login as ROOT and start NetView on my PC, I don't have this problem.
Only when I login as a user.  Any ideas on this one?
Thanks!         Debra
