thanks for your reply. >> would I see any log entries in /var/log/messages if the system >> runs out of memory and kills a process or if a limit in >> /etc/login.conf has been overstepped by a process? > > It should be easy to test this yourself. See login.conf(5) and the > ulimit section of ksh(1). > Yes I consulted login.conf(5), but it does not mention logging (I searched for "log" in the man page with many sentences having that string in the context of 'login'). It does not say how one would enable such logging - if it can be enabled. Or did I overlook something? Currently I don't see any log entries as soon as a process hits for example 'openfiles-max' limits. The first part of my question (out of memory kills due to insufficient system memory) is unrelated to login.conf - I assume. thanks, nusenu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJVjDa7AAoJEFv7XvVCELh02a0QAICUJVerhY5kyxYoilRq1NQA GAc/vLuZuLEsHlVrFCrepSQg5wg47CyEThkEJSIvi0Zn5DlAt4OfmRQmbcd3Zi0C jZfu4zpIfblCzZSwg6RZpmdsurdT6H8fu1IEQkiUfQxId/H4WUpafA9wfHV211DB VoG1A6Q1oCizqGx69vJxFVjVgllNdEeLL+9rysogZ2AO42pV6TuiUgzYrB9H+jyO y4F/igUr4GB0t46GxHQySwjgD3HIfAHvER/Nva0A2bxUSeniJOzRPsAkt4mjAo+c Y+q2TeDtdtRXaFf9y+Zl7HfEnJz+r5EoL3mJRW1h8+0J5qIh1792quYtrYkmOHPU VRjgX6rtBGu0BDgdd3kDLE8Y0PKVMJAt4h10h4mGVC/pKy8c902g51lWeHd6Lbn4 HBxbc4F2yqy2vGorwOSqOOacRIIAIQcIRuCyiv6J4lxkGJsPj/3hece1gA8rbLDW lP3SkDxbdvWoxyK/QYAQXQXWyqNXQU3NEzQHozJL+j3bNVlK/HZwbQ7TARzkwG3v kc04sD6oMxNtecLmSXpiT98VJBn0A3pOVdSHsjGlOS467Z1FSh8s3cNCbvZCvkDY iSGmUyOPEDian0DrN7FlmTEuZUNMcwVZQfmVJadlbV/Pq613YegA4HJlGmRku3TI +ic1EC7Bzp0Sj75Cupz4 =ayEa -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
