i think 256 is just the default. i set them in /etc/profile to take effect when someone logs in. i think logins through ssh were not affected because ulimit is just that .. user limits. its not system wide. it allows X user to do X amount of stuff, and it isn't supposed to interfere with other user's processes. any idea why nmbd went nuts? that hasn't happened to me. nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Vice President Network Operations http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- 12:43am up 188 days, 13:04, 1 user, load average: 1.01, 1.04, 1.06
