Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libpam-modules
Hello, I am desperately trying to allow root big or unlimited coredumps. I set "* soft core 102400" and "* hard core 102400" in /etc/security/limits.conf to no avail, after root login over ssh, I still get the stubborn answer "# ulimit -c" → "0". I don't know if this is a bug in pam itself; it works OK for other users. I also tried to add pam_limits.so to /etc/pam.d/common-session, nothing happens. The same result when putting "ulimit -c unlimited" into /etc/environment. If this is not a bug in PAM but only my inability to find the right solution, please consider it a documentation bug report. It prevent us from debugging crashing gdm daemon (see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=357632 and https://launchpad.net/bugs/62139) Thanks, Vaclav Smilauer ** Affects: pam (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- ulimits not set accrding to /etc/security/limits.conf for root https://launchpad.net/bugs/65244 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
