[gentoo-user] pam limits

[Daniel Iliev]

Hi, ppl

I have the habit of imposing some limitations over all users via 
/etc/security/limits.conf. For example I used to limit the number of
concurrent processes one can execute to prevent the system from simple
misuses like fork bombs by putting a limit (nproc) for group "users"
and all other common groups ("games" etc.)

Now that the behaviour of "useradd -m xyz" has changed from putting the
newuser in group "users" ("xyz:users") to putting the user in a group
with same name ("xyz:xyz") I would appreciate any advice on getting the
old behavior back or any workaround to achieve the same goal - all
users should be limited by default at creation time.
