I tried /etc/profile before I sent out the message. If the user I log in as is not
root, I get the 'Operation not permitted' error. Looks like the problem has something
to do with permissions but I am not sure what to change to make it possible to set
'ulimit
-c' for non-root users since ulimit is a bash built-in command.
