>Number: 8744 >Category: conf >Synopsis: /etc/login.conf defaults too small. umask contradicts adduser. >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Wed Nov 18 08:50:01 PST 1998 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Adrian Filipi-Martin >Organization: Ubergeeks Consulting >Release: FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE i386 >Environment: >Description: Some of the process isze limits have become to small and are easily run into. There are large web pages that cause netscape to exceed the maxmem setting, gimp and fresco users I have been helping have also been running into the default being too low. It looks like you cannot even build Fresco98 without upping these limits some. Also the setting for the default umask in login.conf is in disagreement with the adduser script. This makes the described system of unique groups not work out of the box. >How-To-Repeat: Load http://www.cdw.com/, the go to "bargain basement" and then follow "view all results". The below URL should do this. http://www.cdw.com/search/default.asp?group=BSK&special=groupbsk%2Ehtm&page=1&show=all >Fix: Apply the following patch. Honestly, I have not really researched the new sizes very well. They may need to be larger, or perhaps they could be smaller. The key thing is to make it easy for newbies to avoid this problem. --- login.conf.orig Wed Nov 18 11:29:59 1998 +++ login.conf Wed Nov 18 11:30:09 1998 @@ -32,17 +32,17 @@ default:\ :cputime=infinity:\ - :datasize-cur=22M:\ + :datasize-cur=32M:\ :stacksize-cur=8M:\ :memorylocked-cur=10M:\ - :memoryuse-cur=30M:\ + :memoryuse-cur=64M:\ :filesize=infinity:\ :coredumpsize=infinity:\ :maxproc-cur=64:\ :openfiles-cur=64:\ :priority=0:\ :requirehome@:\ - :umask=022:\ + :umask=002:\ :tc=auth-defaults: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
