The bash ulimit values are: core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited data seg size (kbytes, -d) 33554432 file size (blocks, -f) unlimited max locked memory (kbytes, -l) unlimited max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 32768 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 1 stack size (kbytes, -s) 524288 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 5547 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited Building under bash made no difference. -Glen http://www.arizonacoppersoft.com/
