Can anyone give a tip to us on how to set the ULIMIT parameter in SCO Xenix 2.1.3? We are loath to pay the $75/call support charge to Santa Cruz Operation, yet the syntax for the ULIMIT set escapes us. We'd like to be able to to set the uppler limit on file size to be 15MB. Any clews? Chris Bradley ihnp4!killer!cbradley
