Hi, Not sure if this has been brought up before, but .login_conf can apparently overwrite values in the system's /etc/login.conf. E.g.: /etc/login.conf contains: default:\ :blahblah:\ :filesize=1M:\ :blahblahblah: User twchan has no active .login_conf, and logs into the system: zaapth:~> limits Resource limits (current): cputime infinity secs filesize 1024 kb ... Next, twchan changes his ~/.login_conf to: me:\ :blah: default:\ :filesize=unlimited: And the result is: zaapth:~> limits Resource limits (current): cputime infinity secs filesize infinity kb ... Is this really the intended effect? It feels like a big bug to me... Regards -T.W.Chan- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
