How to limit users RAM/CPU use ?

| Hello ,
I have a dedicated server with CentOS and cPanel/WHM
I want to know how would I limit each user usage of RAM and or CPU
I see HUGE web hosts are doing that , they give you 9999999 diskspace and 99999999 bandwidth but they limit your RAM & CPU use to a tiny number
I want to know how could I do that in order to keep my resources good .
Thanks ,

| You can use the following values in the httpd VH to limit per domain.
RLimitCPU value
RlimitMEM value
RlimitNPROC value

| You have to run php as fast-cgi to make that work.

| david , thanks for your reply .. do you mean I need to add this value to each virtual host in the httpd.conf file ?
if so can you provide an example if possible please ?
CreaForce , thanks for replying to but would you explain more or provide a link where I can understand what you mean ?

| you can use those directives in the virtual host directive for the specific domain in httpd.conf or even set that in .htaccess file for the domain.
RLimitCPU seconds|max [seconds|max]
RLimitMEM bytes|max [bytes|max]

| I have been trying to figure this same thing out for weeks. It seems that My senior server admin can not figure out how to do it and every time I try to hire someone to do it, they seem to run for the hills when I give them a description of what I want. Good luck and let me know if you figure anything out on this issue.

| Srv24x7 , thanks for your help and I'll try to do it using .htaccess because I'm afraid of messing my httpd.conf up
But the problem is that how am I gonna make sure it really works or not
AuthorizedNetwork , as soon as I verify how to do it I'll explain to you

| You can add it globally inside httpd.conf file, inside virtualhost and .htaccess (you can set this for certain directory also). Srv24x7 has stated an example.
