Enable coredump for daemon (oidentd)

oidentd is crashing on me intermittently.  I have done the folowing to
try to get a core dump when this happens:

  * Add "DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT=unlimited" to /etc/sysconfig/oidentd
  * Add "kernel.core_pattern = /tmp/core" to /etc/sysctl.conf

("kernel.core_uses_pid = 1" was already set.)

Despite this, there is no file named /tmp/core* after the daemon
crashes.

What am I missing?

Thanks!
