Julius,

Excellent point on the filehandles.  If he is running X on 
the console of the server, then he'll not even see the
kernel errors when it runs out of file handles.

It is for that reason that I like to NOT run X on the console.

They will restart those workstations and it will work then it affect others.  I have a combination of ps2 and serial mice.  Do you think my problem is workstation/ setup or a server issue (hardware?).  I'm going out there tomorrow and will try some recommendations.  Sorry for being vague, but this info has been related to me.
