Gerard, this is due to a bug in the InteractiveBastille configuration. You 
will need to go into the /etc/limits.config file and find the line that shows 
a file limit of 10000 and add a couple of zeros to it. This was put in to 
limit user file sizes in case of a hack into the system that would take over 
for DDOS attacks. It is short a zero or two in the file. The other way to do 
it, I think, is to rerun InteractiveBastille and not choose file limits. HTH
