I can see two issues: There is no inheritance. Settings for 'default' apply to users that don't have a class configured, they don't provide some default for other classes. The settings are subject to other limits. For example, "maxproc=2048" is still truncated to kern.maxproc. >login.conf(5) mentions cap_mkdb in SEE ALSO, but it doesn't say that the >text version isn't read if the login.conf.db doesn't exist. But running >cap_mkdb doesn't seem to help. I just use the text version.
