Hi,

Does anyone know how to setup ulimit to unlimited for a specific user from root? I need the command to do this.

Thanks

Jim,
Thanks for the reply.But
This command will work if is a stand alonne box, but we are running NIS. So I don't think I can use this command
 
If the account is coming from the NIS master, you will need to

a) run the command on each system the account has access to
b) learn NIS well enough that you can create your own maps and distribute
c) come up with another distribution method

NIS does not inherently work with user attributes since different *nix variants can store that information differently.
