Ulimit on 5.7 SCO ???? Need a quick answer...

[John Esak]

That was it... Thanks.

John

Still it only puts it at 2^22 or something like that... And that is only
about 2Gb... So no real help.  I'll just use "rcp" if I can figure out how
to make it work.

I want to copy /hd1 from one box to another. You would think that:

Rcp -r /hd1 host:/hd1

Would work, of course, no joy.  It seems like it will be one of those
"learning" experieinces.  :-)  

You may ask, why am I "out of retirement mode" and helping to do this..?
The gentleman will be buying my old system... So it is just a means to an
end.  :-)

I'm not going to fail retirement this time... I've failed it twice
already... :-)
