	The limit is definitly extablished by the kernel
        The operating system controls and schedules the processes

      I've never actually had to do this so I'll point to where I believe
      you can do this
      Have a look at /etc/security/limits.conf
      I think 
      *       soft   nproc       1024
      
      will do what you need
      I hope this helps
