I was upgrade our Linux Samba server (Fedora Core 4, kernel 2.6.17,
samba 3.0.23d) to Fedora 7, kernel 2.6.22.2-57.fc7, samba 3.0.25bb-2.fc7
(SELinux in permissive mode), i386 Pentium D 3GHz CPU, 2GB RAM,
LAN with approx. <10 users.
But now users smb daemon sporadically (but frequently, 1-5 times/hour)
crashes. Machine log (Level 2) contain records like this:

setresuid failed with EAGAIN. uid(502) might be over its NPROC limit
