Roberto Resoli commented on DAEMON-192:
---------------------------------------

I definitely agree! Examples would be really useful, since many hints on the 
web about this subject suggest that setting ulimits is only matter to modify 
/etc/security/limits.conf . 
Unfortunately this is absolutely not true, since that configuration file is 
enforced only at login time.



> Make jsvc enforce /etc/security/limits.conf , or add a parameter for setting 
> limits

> When launched with -user parameter, jsvc downgrades user via setuid() system 
> call, but the operating system limits (max number of open files, for example) 
> remains the same. 
> This is not convenient for running daemons (like Tomcat) which very often 
> need a customization of such limits.
