hi there,

how do you achieve resource limiting?
i would like to maintain a certain kind of security (lol, i know: who wouldnt ;) ), so that even if a user messes up my system, i will still be able to gain priority over his process in order to kill it from memory.

Any links, comments or tips are welcome,

so long,

If it is on Linux, you might want to look at:

- RLimitCPU and RLimitMEM on Apache configuration (httpd.conf)

- /etc/security/limits.conf (on PAM enabled distributions)

thx a lot...

based on these words, i found several links, which cover just the stuff i wanted to know :)

you might read up on the command nice and renice.
