sys_resource usually means you are running out of a system resource that a non priv user would not be allowed to add.
/* Override resource limits. Set resource limits. */ /* Override quota limits. */ /* Override reserved space on ext2 filesystem */ /* Modify data journaling mode on ext3 filesystem (uses journaling resources) */ /* NOTE: ext2 honors fsuid when checking for resource overrides, so you can override using fsuid too */ /* Override size restrictions on IPC message queues */ /* Allow more than 64hz interrupts from the real-time clock */ /* Override max number of consoles on console allocation */ /* Override max number of keymaps */
