Limit Processes

2003-07-01 Thread Nucking Futs 
  How would I set up a users account so I could limit the number of 
processes they use?  For example if they are allotted 5 processes and they 
start a 6th either all the processes get killed or the sixth is not allowed, 
something along those lines.

Please see

as well as man login.conf.

The maxproc directive should do what you desire.
