Looks quite similar: 13:48:38 [source]: ulimit -a core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited open files (-n) 256 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 stack size (kbytes, -s) 2043 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 63 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) 2097152 Kind regards robert
