Ted,

I am hoping you can provide a quick answer to the following:

How does one go about increasing the amount of shared memory available
on a FreeBSD system?

I am under the impression that the OS kernel has to be remade after
a shared memory configuration change has been made, but I may be wrong.
I have another site that is wanting to get going on FreeBSD, and they
need to know the steps involved in setting shared memory.

Any help you can provide would be most appreciated.
