   This looks exactly like what I'm looking for. Just one problem
though.. When I run unison, it starts unison via ssh on the remote
system. So even if I add the "ulimit" statements to my .profile, they
aren't processed when unison is launched.

   I tried running:

c:\> ssh -l jan foo.bar ulimit -a

   And it doesn't display my new ulimit values.

   Do I need to set the limits in login.conf?
