For AT&T sys V users, KSH k-shell has options for time-out... I havn't played with it yet, but from what I've seen, it will exit you if no keyboard i/o is done in xmins. I don't know if it checks the processes or not.... Are my postings being posted more than once??? If you see this note more than once, then please send me a note..... +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=+ | DON INGLI | | UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE - SOIL CONSERVATION SERVICE | | WORK: (314) 875-5344 FAX: (314) 875-5335 | | | | bitnet: agriscs@umcvmb.bitnet internet: agriscs@umcvmb.missouri.edu | | attmail: attmail!attbl!arpa!umcvmb.missouri.edu!agriscs | | | | ALL OPINIONS IN THIS NOTE ARE OF MY OWN AND DO NOT REPRESENT THE | | FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA | +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=+

KSH will not timeout if the user leaves the terminal in some application (like elm, or vi). -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Conor P.
