Fournier" To: freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Upping process limits... Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm running a 3.0-current build of around the end of July this year, so pre-ELF stuff and have hit a snag... I need to increase the news processes datasize and stack limits, and can't seem to get them above 256Meg, even with modifying /etc/login.conf (and running cap_mkdb)... I had, at one point, added MAXDSIZ and DLTDSIZ values of 256Meg to my kernel, and suspect that this has created a *hard limit* to th emax,which login.conf can't override. Is this correct? If so, is there any way around this, without my having to rebuild? I've been putting off upgradeing to the current 3.0-ELF stuff for two reasons...fear and beign 2500kilometers away from the server :( Is there any sysctl value I can set or something like that?
