That you should.

RH sets a _soft_ limit on core size, so for a normal user you should
just be able to make sure that 'ulimit -c 100000000' (or whatever) gets
called in their initial shell. 

If you're using pam_limits, try /etc/security/pam_limits.conf as an
easier way of ensuring that limits are applied on login.

Alternately, just increase the core size limit with ulimit before
starting the master; I think that should do the trick.

I'm not sure if there's a particular 'more correct' way.
