Hi folks,
I recently setup FreeBSD 5.3R on my P4 2.4 GHz system and have a slight
problem with it not respecting the limits set in /etc/login.conf. The entry
I've made in /etc/login.conf is below:
bopm:\
:openfiles=8192:\
:coredumpsize=unlimited:\
:tc=default:
Yet when a user with that login class logins in, they're offered a openfiles
limit of 14781 instead of 8192. In my kernel I've set "maxusers" so FreeBSD
doesn't attempt to auto-tune this setting.
I searched the handbook and the FAQ, but didn't come up with anything useful.
Any help on this, is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
