I've tried playing with settings in /etc/login.conf and made sure I ran cap_mkdb. The default settings which is what it is supposed to be using is set to unlimited. I can up the value with 'ulimit -s 262144' as root but when I try to do this as an average user I get this. ulimit: ulimit: bad limit: Operation not permitted Any ideas?
