Re: apache + cgi



usually i just kill apache, set the ulimit (ulimit -u 40) and restart
apache.  you could prob do this in the rc script too.  i'll check out the
rlimit directives, but that sounds like an apache thing.  i feel safer
with a system level limiter.  and kernel patches i have applied ensure
they are enforced (better) then that of a 'stock' kernel. (using
2.0.36+securelinux patch, same kernel for the past year).
