The ideal thing is if you extend the ulimit in /etc/security/limits.conf,
put the ulimit command in /etc/profile. Then you don't need to fix any
scripts.
This is a linux thing, and maybe only a redhat linux thing (I don't
know, because I only use RHEL and FC as far as linux goes). It doesn't
exist on e.g. FreeBSD.
