This is a MySQL configuration error. By default MySQL only allows a maximum of 100 connections server wide. So if your forum is using it as well as a stats program or web based email, then you can easily and quickly hit the limit. Especially if any of the applications use persistant connections and don't close them when done.
As a vBulletin customer, you are entitled to support including help in optimizing your server for maximum usage of available resources.
Also this server is a Dual Xeon machine with 4 GB of RAM. I think the processors are 2.8 GHZ. I don't really get involved with the hardware though. A couple of our developers maintain the server.
