"su -", "su -l", and "sudo -i" provide a login shell, which gets the limits setup by login.conf. Normally daemons are started at boot via rc mechanism (or perhaps get spawned from inetd) and do not have a login shell associated with them to setup the limits. Either use one of the su/sudo flavors I mention above, or "/bin/sh -l" to provide a login env to the process… Regards, -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
