Can anyone shed some light on changing the ulimit of the executable unix (kernel)? I know that ulimit is initially set by u.u_ulimit = CDLIMIT. CDLIMIT is defined as (1L<<11). Can I use sdb to change it?? Any help would be appreciated. -- ////////////////////////////////////////// * Bob Esposito espo@bpa.bell-atl.com * //////////////////////////////////////////

You don't want the system as a whole creating files bigger than 1 Meg. (At least we don't.) -- Stuart D. Gathman <..!seismo!{vrdxhq|dgis}!BMS-AT!stuart>

If you are running on an AT&T box, and are on software maint. you can call 1 800 922 0354 and ask for a fix. They will gladly provide it free of charge. If you wish to do it yourself; it can come in several forms. The most comprehensive is (if you have source) recompile /etc/init with the appropriate call in it. If not, an alternate version of /bin/login will do nicely, coupled with a shell ulimit call in /etc/rc. Steve Blasingame (Oklahoma City) ihnp4!occrsh!gorgo!bsteve bsteve@eris.Berkeley.Edu
