ulimit -f too low - login.defs?

[miquels@cistron.nl (Miquel van Smoorenburg)]

I have been finding out why I cannot create files bigger than
1GB (the kernel limit is 2GB) - it turns out that /etc/login.defs sets
this to 1GB by default. It doesn't look that way because it's set to
2097152, but that's in 512 byte blocks for some stupid reason.

So I wanted to file a bug report against.. well, some package ... but
I don't know here login.defs comes from ..

$ dpkg -S logins.defs
dpkg: *logins.defs* not found.

$ zcat Contents-i386.gz | grep logins.defs
$ 

Anyone care to enlighten me?

Mike.
