Also from ancient memory, but here goes:

	We had problems once upon a time with this, and it turned out that
	ULIMIT was not the name of the tunable parameter for ulimit (nice,
	huh?).  I believe it was CDLIMIT, and, yes, the easiest way to change
	it was kconfig--->configure kernel--->add tunable parameters.

Gary, let me know if this works (hope it does....).
