[ale] Conundrum for the day: file resource limit problem

Joe,

I noticed that the line was included in /etc/pam.d/sshd but not
/etc/pam.d/login.  If I add it in the former do I need it in the latter (or
in /etc/pam.d/ftp -- the file resource limit problem occurred when the user
was trying to FTP a very large file)?

One caveat I might mention.  In order for PAM to use 
limits.conf, you will need to add the following line at 
the bottom of /etc/pam.d/login, if it's not in there 
already:

session    required     /lib/security/pam_limits.so

PAM... 

cd /etc/security/...less limits.conf...THAT'S IT!!!
