Nofiles & nproc

Thank you for the answer and your time, I am indeed using ssh to access. I have no way to access the terminal directly...so now further will try to find out how to find if priv separation is indeed enabled and how to disable it. I did run the couple of cmds listed in the bug track:
Code:
ulimit -H -u = 35000 & ulimit -S -u 1024

were my outcomes.

TY again.

---------- Post updated at 01:46 PM ---------- Previous update was at 01:36 PM ----------

Did find /etc/ssh and sshd_config in there, the priv line is commented out...what does that mean?
Code:
#UsePrivilegeSeparation yes

I am afraid this where my any adv knowledge ends and do not want to mess things...if any could suggest what else to check...I would be grateful.

One question I did not ask, normally does one need to reboot server after limits.conf change? I read that it is not needed (RHEL 6.1/6.2)? That change is effective immediately.
