AT job error ulimit exceeded for user

Does anyone else have the following problem? Whenever I run an AT job I get
the following error via mail:
sh[22]: ulimit: The specified value exceeds the user's allowable limit.

I have checked the ulimit for the user, it is:
4194304

I have checked the .profile for the user and etc/profile, no problems at line
22. This happens for any at job.

Anyone else see this problem? What is a possible solution?

Modify the /var/adm/cron/.proto file to resolve the ulimit warning.
Your /var/adm/cron/.proto file should contain this information:

# @(#) $Revision: 27.1 $
cd $d
if [ "$l" = "4194304" ]; then
ulimit unlimited
echo was number
else
ulimit $l
echo was unlimited
fi
ulimit
umask $m
$<
