In my (not all *that* broad) experience, lp is the normal username for running the lp subsystem on SYSV systems, but RH runs things like this as daemon. Certainly that's how lpd runs on our RH (6.2) system. But I see that there is a user lp, and <writes small test program> it doesn't look as though it has any special limit on # processes. (Limit is set to 2048, AFAICS.)
I haven't ever had to play with process limits under RH, and I don't know off hand how they're set. I trust someone more knowledgeable will tell us both, soon. -- - Dave Lovelace [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
