I have put limits in /etc/security/limits.conf to prevent a user from bringing down my machine by using up all the memory, and I have uncommented the line
session required pam_limits.so in /etc/pam.d/login so that this is read. When I log in using a virtual terminal this works perfectly, but these settings are ignored by both ssh and xdm logins. Moreover, the tcsh limit command and the bash ulimit command are also ignored, in all cases. Can anyone suggest a way to set process limits for ssh and xdm logins? Any help appreciated.
