Just a wild *** guess, but here goes (without any guarantees of course!)

What about limiting it by using the part of OMVS segment of a RACF userid, 
PROCUSERMAX? Or what about THREADSMAX?

Of course, if your BPXAS, TCP/IP and FTP owners are having UID=0 this will 
NOT work.

You may need to stop your FTP (and perhaps TCP/IP too?) to pickup the new 
owner's OMVS attribute.

Test it and let us know if this helps you?
