In the */etc/security/limit.conf* file I have added the following values:
user1 - nproc unlimited
user2 - nproc unlimited
Both *user1* and *user2* have **sudo** privileges and I used *user1* to make this change. I then logged out of the server and logged back in.
When I check as user1, the ulimit -u command goves me output 'Unlimited'.
**However, when I check as user2, the ulimit -u command gives me value of 10000.**
Where can this value be coming from?
