I see this message from the IOC's CA server when I am testing it under a
heavy UDP load. The server is attempting to send a UDP response frame and
the ENOBUFS error code is returned from the sendto() function. It appears that
this results from a transient congestion in the IP kernel. Since the UDP
portions of CA have built in retransmission timers (as is normal for UDP protocols)
then this situation is benign as long as it is transient. I did not suppress the message
because I felt that it was worthwhile to monitor the frequency of this congestion.
I suspect that this message is scrolling other more important information off of the
screen. I will store an internal counter for these occurrences which will be displayed
by casr, and otherwise suppress the message.
