Merge changes (or just copy) from /usr/src/etc/login.conf to /etc/login.conf. There are changes in there which increase some values, notably to let fsck work properly. >From crontab manpage: Each line has five time and date fields, followed by a user name (with optional ``:<group>'' and ``/<lojgin-class>'' suffixes) if this is the system crontab file, So I suppose you could change the login class of the job causing you trouble to one with higher limits.
