Hello, 
      I am using Free BSD  2.1.5-RELEASE and finding that the call 
getrlimit() is behaving weirdly. it returns a value of 0, which means 
success. But the value returned in the second parameter 
rlp->rlim_cur, is -1 !! 

      The parameters passed are : 
        first parameter is RLIMIT_NOFILE, 
        second parameter is a pointer to the struct rlimit. 

      Is there any file which has to be modified to get the correct value? 
Or any information regarding this call will be useful. 

thanks, 
Vinay.
