Package: I am not sure which package this breaks but I would assume everything that looks for pam_limits would be broken Version: Latest Stable
I setup a limit in /etc/security/limits.conf in various ways, I have tried the following to date: * - nofile 65535 AND * - hard nofile 65535 * - soft nofile 32768 Once I modify the limits.conf file to include one of the following I reboot the server. After the reboot I do a ulimit -n and get 1024 as the output which is the default. I have tried the exact similar setup on an older server and it works fine. I have tried this on a couple of servers but all have the same issue, even with a default install. Here is some output, hostname:~# grep nofile /etc/security/limits.conf # - nofile - max number of open files * hard nofile 65535 * soft nofile 32768 hostname:~# ulimit -n 1024 Please note that server was rebooted after modifying the limits.conf file. This is the first bug I have reported and I am aware that the bug report is not clean but I would appreciate it if you could look in to this. Regards
