(shadow980724)
given that :
R: max resident set size (KB) [_no effect on Linux 2.0.x_]
and setting the S in /etc/limits has no effect how can i limit the memory
an ordinary user can use ?
I tryed on more systems ( rh5.1, and rh5.2) and nothing... i added
the HAVE_ULIMIT flag with no result ... tryed shadow980724 and 971215.
How can this be done ?
Any help is apreciated.
RedHat 5.2 (Amd K5)
the default kernel from 5.2 , 2.0.36
