I can't get sshd to acknowledge the settings in the login.conf file. When I log in as myself, I get low limits, when I su to root I get the "infinite" limits I have specified. I've edited the login.conf file and run the cap_mkdb program. I can provide the login.conf file if needed, but the basics are that all of the default and standard resource limits are set to infinity (only trusted users are allowed on this system). Ex. :openfiles-cur=infinity:\ Haven't gotten around to installing ssh .21 yet, can do that if it will help. Here is the uname -a, I plan to upgrade to a 2.2.5-Beta next week. FreeBSD 2.2-970901-RELENG. Thanks, Doug You wanna catch a fish? Learn to think like a fish. - Anku (Northern Exposure)
