I have a strange problem. Occationally, when I try to log out of an AppleShare session by dragging the AppeShare icon to the trash, the icon doesn't disappear and my session remains. I log in via the auto login feature at boot time. Might this have something to do with open files? Any other ideas why this happens? Thanks, -- Phil Trubey SHL Systemhouse Inc.

Don't know if this is helpfull but if your network is really busy it takes a while for the server to aknowledge the termination of your sessions... -- Scruffy Ian Sullivan ******************************************************************************* ** % "Would that love were such a thing ** **ian@umiami.ir.miami.edu % that one could hold, see or touch ** ** % and perhaps squash the life out of" ** **UUU UMUMMM MMMMMM % -Anonymous ** **UUU UMU MMM MMM MMM % ** **uUU UMU MMM MMM MMM % "Life's been good to me so far..." -J.W. ** **UUUUUUUUMUof MMMMM MMM % "Give it a while." -Me. ** *******************************************************************************

Sounds like screwy priorities to me. If your net is overloaded, don't you want to terminate any session that's finished ASAP? -- /=============================================================================\ | Francis Stracke | My opinions are my own.

Do you have any files on an AppleShare fileserver? you may not think you have, but if you're using something like SuitCase to open fonts or DAs that are on the fileserver, you can't dismount whatever AppleShare volume has them open.

If you use Suitcase to open font/DA files on your server, these files are continuously open - and so dragging the server icon to the trash won't log you out. A shutdown or restart is the only way (short of going into Suitcase and closing the files manually). I suppose anything else that keeps files open will produce the same effect.

Most likely, you have a busy file on that server volume. The latest system software releases won't let you unmount AppleShare volumes if there's a busy file on one. Try quitting some applications, particularly Microsoft Word, and try again. -greg +----------------------------------------------------+ Greg Brail Internet: gjb@cs.brown.edu BITNET: gjb@browncs.bitnet UUCP: ..uunet!brunix!gjb Home: (401)273-1172
