The argument to the stacksize argument to limit is in kilobytes. If that doesn't work set it even higher. But, be very careful that you don't do "unlimit stacksize". This will cause any process that you spawn from that shell to fail with problems in the dynamically linking loader. Barry Lustig Advanced Decision Systems barry@ADS.COM

Try 'man limit' to get info about setting limits.
Althoug it seems that you can't set stacksize unlimited under 4.0.
