For oneiric this will be fixed soon with an updated pam package. For existing Ubuntu releases, we have not committed to providing an update. A workaround for this is to add a line such as the following to /etc/security/limits.conf:
* hard nproc 4096 (you may wish to adjust the value of the limit according to the resources of your environment) Or you can disable pam_limits entirely in /etc/pam.d if you aren't otherwise using it, which would cause the system to fall back to the kernel defaults. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/391761 Title: process limit unlimited (regression) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
