if its only when you use su it sounds like resource limits. the command is ulimit -u not ulimits -u. i have not touched resource limits yet on debian (have not got around to it) but ulimit -u for my accounts shows 256. [EMAIL PROTECTED] eb]$ ulimit -u 256 [EMAIL PROTECTED] eb]$ run ps x and see how many processes you have running. -- Ethan Benson
