A refreshing break perhaps consideration of this problem will be for beleagured -current readers :) Any luck with just the plain vanilla system with stock /etc/login.conf, no class memberships in /etc/master.passwd, telnet login as root? I have the same problem as satoshi. I can't even seem to get the default: values to come up. The best I can do in my tcsh is to say 'unlimit' which gives me: # limit cputime unlimited filesize 65536 kbytes datasize 32768 kbytes stacksize 16384 kbytes coredumpsize 0 kbytes memoryuse unlimited descriptors 8232 memorylocked 126344 kbytes maxproc 4115 In my kernel config I have: options "MAXDSIZ=201326592UL" options "DFLDSIZ=134217728UL" options "DFLSSIZ=33554432UL" which results in the expected increases on a 2.2 system after a tcsh unlimit. I was able to use limits(1) to override filesize to infinity for a bonnie run, but I can't seem to make it stick. Btw, the limits(1) man page xrefs a non-existing ulimit(1) page, too. -Chris On Tue, 4 Feb 1997, Satoshi Asami wrote: > * From: davidn@labs.usn.blaze.net.au (David Nugent) > > * limits -C xuser /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm [args] > * > * (replace 'xuser' with whatever entry you wish). > * > * Modifying xdm is on my login_cap todo list, but of course > * this may take some time to filter into an XFree release. > > I think I'm just dense, but I can't for my life figure out how to use > this login.conf thing.
