5.2.1-RELEASE


I tried using this command to change the location where my core dump is=
 being written:

sysctl kern.corefile=3D"/var/coredumps/%U/%N.core"


After doing that, new core dumps didn't show up there. I tried creating the=
 directory (wasn't sure if it would be created with the first core dump or=
 not) and chmod it to 0777 just to make sure it was writeable by any=
 process - still no core dumps there.

Is there a way to put it back the way it was, where the core dump ends up=
 in the working directory as programname.core ?

Thanks,
Chris
