That you should. RH sets a _soft_ limit on core size, so for a normal user you should just be able to make sure that 'ulimit -c 100000000' (or whatever) gets called in their initial shell. If you're using pam_limits, try /etc/security/pam_limits.conf as an easier way of ensuring that limits are applied on login. Alternately, just increase the core size limit with ulimit before starting the master; I think that should do the trick. I'm not sure if there's a particular 'more correct' way.
