I don't want these to fail. I think I underestimated that. newsroom@dawn$ limits Resource limits (current): cputime infinity secs filesize infinity kb datasize 131072 kb stacksize 65536 kb coredumpsize infinity kb memoryuse-cur 32768 kb memorylocked infinity kb maxprocesses-cur 64 openfiles-cur 1024 I've added "ulimit -S -u 256" to apachectl's start function. Hopefully this will fix the problem. I have written a tiny CGI and confirmed that the setting is passed through to CGI descendants of the shell running as a different user.
