yup, the shells need to be changed, which is really awkward. I was wrong about how bash and zsh handle `ulimit 4 1024'.

Adding new ulimits is nice - it's a shame that the shells make it hard to use. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
