[gentoo-user] Persistent ulimit for daemons

2012-08-01 Thread Michael Orlitzky
Is there a blessed method these days for setting the ulimit per-daemon? The best I've been able to do is a global setting in /etc/rc.conf: rc_ulimit="-s 1048576" The entries under /etc/security seem to be ignored when using `/etc/init.d/foo start`.

[gentoo-user] Udev rules for identical hard drives

2012-08-01 Thread Alex Schuster
Hi there! I do not understand the numbering of my hard drives. There may be some inherent logic, but whenever I make some changes, like replacing drives, or changing BIOS settings, the order changes. Maybe it's even more random. So I made some udev rules like this, and my drives are called /dev/h
