IPC Linux -- WAS [Re: mod_perl & IPC under Solaris 7]

[Tom Harper <to...@auctionet.com>]

I have been looking for where I can set this setting
in (redhat) linux-- anyone have any pointers?

ipcs, ipcrm are there, but i don't have an etc/system.

very little documentation on this for linux (or bsd)
that i could find.
