Philip, /etc/security/limits.conf will let you set limits on the number of sessions per user and other limits. These limits are controlled by PAM and are enforced at login time. Look at /etc/pam.d/system_auth as well; it should have a line that says "session required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_limits.so" To enforce usage limits, use ulimit in /etc/profile. For example, "ulimit -S -c 0" sets a soft limit on coredump sizes of zero, meaning that programs cannot dump core when they crash. For an explanation of ulimit, type # man bash /ulimit (TRANSLATION: search for ulimit in bash's manual) -David -- David Johnston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Little Bald Consulting, LLC ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
