I'm running a 3.0-current build of around the end of July this year, so
pre-ELF stuff and have hit a snag...

I need to increase the news processes datasize and stack limits, and can't
seem to get them above 256Meg, even with modifying /etc/login.conf (and
running cap_mkdb)...

I had, at one point, added MAXDSIZ and DLTDSIZ values of 256Meg to my
kernel, and suspect that this has created a *hard limit* to th emax,which
login.conf can't override.  Is this correct?

If so, is there any way around this, without my having to rebuild?  I've
been putting off upgradeing to the current 3.0-ELF stuff for two
reasons...fear and beign 2500kilometers away from the server :(

Is there any sysctl value I can set or something like that?

Thanks...
