Hi, Is anyone here using TwinView with NVIDIA graphics drivers under CentOS 5? Just tried this configuration (I've been using dual monitors as separate X screens in the past), and while it works in a sense, there are a few issue that will probably prevent me from using it for real. Notably, which

[CentOS] Limit RAM used by a perl script

I have a perl script which runs from a cron job. How would you limit the amount of RAM that this script is allowed to consume? Is there a ulimit setting that will accomplish this? If so does ulimit have to be run each time the script is run, or is there a way to set it permanently? _

I assume you mean public key based authentication... if so, one "gotcha" that verbose debug messages won't help you with is the permissions on the .ssh directory and the files underneath... they must be owned by the "owner" and cannot have any "other" permissions (e.g. chmod 700 .ssh and chmod
