Hi I'm trying to set custom number of open files with limits.conf for a
user with Debian 7 but it doesnt work (have rebooted etc.):

on a side not, this works ok, but it doesnt help me as I need the sudo
command to see the correct limits aswell.

but on a Debian 6 system it works.

anyone seen this issue before or know if there is an added security
