Subject:	shmget failed

Hi,
   I got bad system call error when I tried to compile a program that 
contains the following code,

shmid = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, size, IPC_CREAT | 0600);
where, size = 661552

At first I thought it has to do with the size, but reducing the size to 
128 still cause bad system call error.
Does anyone know what caused shmget to fail?


Thanks,
Jennifer
