[svlug] How to enable nofile during boot

[Robert Freiberger]

Heh, I found I forgot to include the so file in the /etc/pam.d/login file.
But after I did this, the results are the same. From the /proc/<pid>/limits
it's showing the default but takes the new changes when it's restarted.

At work we have a semi-custom spin of RHEL and I wonder if there's
something else over riding my settings.

Also I tried restarting the service as myself and root with same results.
