Subject: (5.24) ME cant remalloc xx bytes Cannot allocate memory
This probably means that innd wants to grow bigger than what the actual limit for a single process is. To solve this either rebuild your kernel with a different default max, or add "unlimit datasize" to the beginning on your rc.news file. On some OS (e.g. FreeBSD 2.1.x) there might be some problems when using the supplied malloc. Linking with -lgnumalloc helped (after Joe Greco <jgreco@ns.sol.net>).
