We just recently upgraded to version 3.1C on our Iris 4D, with 4Sight instead of Mex. Now, when you sign on the console, we get menus (at top left) and a window at bottom left. It's easy to create lots of windows by cloning or otherwise. However, it is not sufficient to log out from all the windows: it'll then still be possible to open another window (using the Tools menu). Thus, you must use the 4Sight "Log out" menu item to log out completely, and this is what we have been telling our users. However, what happens is they'll just log out from the menu, instead of closing each one individually. The problem with this is that 4Sight does not appear to update /etc/utmp to indicate they have logged off. Thus, as of right now, I'm the only one on the system, but who tells me: tom ttyd1 May 17 12:00 zeng ttyq2 May 17 01:43 zeng ttyq3 May 17 02:01 zeng ttyq4 May 17 02:06 Has this been fixed in a new version? And hasn't there been another version since 3.1C (which we received 2 weeks ago)? \tom haapanen tom@mims-iris.UWaterloo.CA watmims research group university of waterloo "Now, you didn't really expect my views to agree with my employer's, did you?"
