Description:Dear,

Everytime that I start Asterisk using "service asterisk start" in my CentOS 5.5 64-bit Asterisk box this message appears: "Starting asterisk: /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk: line 86: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted"

This problem begun to happen after I edit /etc/security/limits.conf and add the line "*               -       nofile          168796" to Samba 3.5.6 works properly.

This problem happens since Asterisk 1.6.1.

How can fix that?

Thanks so much.

This is an operating system configuration problem and not an Asterisk bug. Please utilize the appropriate forums for support.
