BIND seems to have a problem after I re-created the configuration and files:

This might be the initial setting (from VMS 7.3) and has never been updated, though VMS and TCPIP have. What would be a reasonable value for ByteLM or PByteLM?

Around here (on what was my main system until I ran out of spare
power supplies):

How "reasonable" any of those values might be is another question.
It's entirely possible that when I got the 2GB of memory installed, I
went through and boosted quotas without any actual justification.
If I wanted an official opinion, then I might dissect the TCPIP kit,
or do a fresh installation on a virgin (or re-virginized) disk, and see
how the various accounts are created.
Is there anything in any of the patch release notes through the ages?
I know nothing, but your quotas look to me more like what I'd expect
on a VAX. And not a large VAX.

you might try looking at the SHOW PROC/ACCOUNTING values either within a session, or from the accounting data on a past session. This could give you an idea of how much of your process quotas have been used, and thus serve as a guide to which quotas to raise.
did you do an AUTOGEN with FEEDBACK after installing your new memory?

I don't remember, but most likely not
. The system was 256Mb when I got it, updated to the max (512 Mb) but that was years ago. Autogen hasn't run in a long time either. Might be a good idea anyway
