#
#
# I am an admin of a Debian woody Linux box for computer science majors.
#
# The machine is running the 2.4.17 kernel with iptables and quotas.
#
# Although I have spent a lot of time securing things, I still
# fear that fork bombs may kill the box.
#
# Is there a way in the 2.4.17 kernel to prevent fork bombs
# from crashing a system ?
#
# I fear the students from the Operating Systems class.
