Re: [mailinglists] Ulimit and max processes

["Andrew Miehs" <andrew@2sheds.de>]

I have installed the SAME packages with dpkg --set-selections on two boxes
with a self compiled kernel 2.4.25-p4smp.

One has 256, one has 7168

WHERE is the 256 coming from - I have looked everywhere - even compared
etc, lib dirs etc... I just dont understand!!!
Thanks

Andrew
