[PLUG] User limits in Linux

All,

This just came across from our Sys Admin team:
*
"They may be able to increase it [user processes] a little, but probably
not enough to resolve the problem, which was the case last time we saw this
issue.  Linux [user processes] cannot be set to unlimited like other unix
flavors."*

I find this hard to believe. However, the more I think about it maybe it's
true since you need to put a # in /etc/security/limits.conf?

thanks,
