I don't know if this is a valid statement, but it almost seems like when you make the change /etc/sysconfig/ulimit via Yast2 that it should create corresponding entries in limits.conf. Having two areas with similar settings is confusing. You aren't always sure which one is really doing the blocking.
No, /etc/sysconfig/ulimit are system wide limits, /etc/security/limits.conf is per user. That's a big difference.
My understanding of David's issue is that the system-wide setting is ignored, even though there is no per user configuration in /etc/security/limits.conf. Is this expected? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
