That depends how you are going to *use* the ulimit approach in that type of context. For example, there is no way to specify ulimit in PHP's proc_open(), maybe because setrlimit() is OS-specific. There are other cases when binaries are executed directly, without a shell, hence the need for a wrapper. -- Victor Sudakov VAS4-RIPE http://vas.tomsk.ru/ 2:5005/49@fidonet
