Dear gentoo users, |
2 |
|
3 |
since a few months I am getting core dumps in / and $HOME/ on my |
4 |
notebook. I am not aware of having changed anything with my PAM or |
5 |
similar settings. Has there be any changes to the default policy in |
6 |
PAM concerning core dumps? |
7 |
|
8 |
I would like to suppress the generation of core dumps for normal users. |
9 |
|
10 |
ulimit -c as normal user gives me 976 block as root I get 0. I know |
11 |
that setting ulimit -c 0 in .bash_profile or .profile could be a |
12 |
solution but I'm looking for a more appropriate way to avoid core |
13 |
dumps for normal users. |
14 |
|
15 |
I already read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml but the |
16 |
information there seems to be somehow outdated since I don't have a |
17 |
/etc/limits.conf only a /etc/limits. But AFAIK this ought to be |
18 |
irrelevant for me as I am using PAM? |
19 |
|
20 |
Anyhow, I did not change anything to /etc/security/limits.conf or |
21 |
/etc/limits, i.e. everything in these files is commented out. I also |
22 |
checked /etc/conf.d/rc and it seems to be ok. |
23 |
|
24 |
So how can I get rid of these core dumps? |
25 |
|
26 |
I am using sys-libs/pam-0.78-r5. |
27 |
|
28 |
Some more general information about my system: |
29 |
# emerge --version |
30 |
Portage 2.1.2-r9 (default-linux/x86/2006.1, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.5-r0, |
31 |
2.6.19-ck2-r1 i686) |
32 |
|
33 |
What else? |
34 |
|
35 |
Thanks in advance. |
36 |
|
37 |
Best regards, |
38 |
