In fact, no. ulimit is stupid, that's all, in that it changes both soft and hard limit when going down. But if as root you change the hard limit to 2048 without touching the soft one then start a user shell, you'll see that you can raise your limit with ulimit -n 2048, but if you ever reduce it you can't raise it again. (t)csh limit changes only the soft limit unless you add -h. OG. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
