Hi,
I want to stop my SPARCclassic from doing core dumps. I know that
the system call 'setrlimit' can reduce the core dump size to 0,
effectively stoping the core dump. Unfortunitly I can not program and
need someone to help me.

You may ask, why stop the core dump. Well when I run a couple of
windows and on core dumps it stops the win manager and screws up my term
emulation so I can not logout and login again.

Yours,
Dave..

In a configuration file of your shell (~/.profile, ~/.zprofile), add
limit coredumpsize 0

It will work most of the time.
