I'm logging in as a non-root user, which is the usual way I login.

$ grep nofile /etc/security/limits.conf
#        - nofile - max number of open files
* soft nofile 2048
* hard nofile 2048

In case you're wondering why I don't have "sudo" preceding the commands,
it's because I ran them in a root terminal...doh! I see my mistake: when
I do "ulimit -n" as the (non-root) user, it does return 2048.

Sorry, my bad.
