When I ran FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE some while ago, ``ulimit -c 0'' caused no core files to be created when the software crashed. Under both FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE and FreeBSD 3.3-stable, core files are created, but have zero length, despite ``ulimit -c 0''. What has gone wrong? Is it bash or is it FreeBSD? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trond Endrestøl | trond@dontpanic.gtf.ol.no Merkantilvegen 59HB7, | tronde@ramstind.gtf.ol.no N-2815 GJØVIK, NORWAY |+47 61139424 || +47 63874242 Patron of The Art of Computer Programming| FreeBSD 3.3 & Pine 4.10 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
