Create a script called "/etc/initscript". If this script exists, then init will
use it to start processes. In it, you can issue whatever ulimit commands you
want before starting the process. It is passed 4 parameters, which are the 4
fields of the inittab entry.
#!/bin/sh
identifier="${1}"
levels="${2}"
action="${3}"
process="${4}"
# Insert whatever you would like to do at this point.
eval exec "${process}"
