Folks, the only way to make sure that you don't run into ULIMIT problems
is to reconfigure the kernel and remove the ULIMIT line in /etc/default/login.

Any other change including that listed above is a hack and only solves
some of the problems.  Instead of searching through the system for every 
such problem, just fix it right in the one place where it matters.
