Use the directives RLimitCPU, RLimitNPROC, RLimitMEM, etc in the apache config file. See the docs for details. Alternatively you could use the cgiwrap utility.

You have probably heard that Linux (and other Unices) are much more flexible and powerful than WinXX. One major difference between any Unix (Linux included) and WinXX is that you have to _unserstand_ it. With WinXX, someone can tell you to flip this, click that, press this and if your requirements are within bounds set by Redmond, you should be ok. This is generally not true in our world. Quick answers for very well documented and simple problems (like yours) can get you going for a few hours, but soon you'll need another quick answer, and soon after another .. This is if you haven't read any docs. Once you have done your homework and ask *real* questions, you'll see how helpful the Linux community is. -- Mojahed
Re: Security Setup: how to respond to a portscan (This is long!)

I got the info like this: Daemons that run stand-alone do not need a file like /etc/inetd.conf to specify on which port they should run. inetd.conf is only relevant for services that are run by inetd. Example of stand-alone daemons are httpd (apache), ProFTPD, sendmail, etc. (They can be run by inetd too). Most of these types of daemons have config files of their own which specify which port they should listen on. -- Mojahed
Netscape Problem
Dear List, Netscape is driving me crazy! Images don't show up if auto-loading of images is on. If it is off, I have to press the image load button repeatedly to load the images one by one -- where it's supposed to load all images at once. Also, Netscape frequently gives an internal error Can't open network connection and often it can't save files saying too many open files. It's a blatantly false message as every other app is happy and lsof shows the number of open files well below the max. I tried with Netscape 4.05, 4.60 and even a libc5 version of 4.04, everyone of them is giving the same error. I'm using Debian 2.1r2. Please help me.
