[Serusers] Memory issues

[Francisco Neira]

Hello all,

I am a newcomer to ser and to VoIP, and having some trouble installing 
and starting ser. I already "googled" but with no avail. I hope you can 
help me.

The downloaded version is 0.8.14 both in binaries and in source. OS is 
RedHat 9 on a Compaq Proliant w. 512MB RAM.

Every time I attempt to start ser I get the following messages in 
/var/log/messages:

Oct 27 11:37:36 ns /sbin/ser[20678]: ERROR: relay_reply: no mem for 
outbound reply buffer

Oct 27 11:37:38 ns /sbin/ser[20669]: ERROR: sl_reply_error used: I'm

Did I make a mistake in the installation or config process perhaps?

Any help or hint about the issue will be greatly appreciated!

Regards
