Hi there; I keep getting bit by an "auto-logout" feature on my 9000-300 machine. Where does it live and what kind of hammer do I use to kill it? Thanks in advance.

I presume you are using csh. Take a look at the csh manual entry under the section called "CSH UTILITIES". Autologout is described there. To disable the feature, you can either 'unset autologout' or 'set autologout=0' in your .login file. Bruce Rodean rodean%hpfcrn@hplabs.HP.COM

I have the following in my .cshrc: unset autologout I would assume that ksh and sh have similar variables. It's doc'd in the man pages. -- Niels.

Auto-logout is a "feature" of your login shell. If you're using /bin/csh, just put the following line in your .cshrc file: set autologout=0 I assume there is something analogous if your using sh or ksh. Daryl Odnert daryl%hpcllla@hplabs.hp.com Hewlett-Packard

I use the following line in my .login file (for csh use only): if ($?autologout) unset autologout -bruce

Your shell is in control of this. In ksh, just type 'TMOUT=0; export TMOUT'. In csh, type 'unset autologout'. I don't think sh has an autologout feature.
