Joe,
What distro are you running on the server?
It is the job of the display manager (GDM/KDM/XDM) to kill off any
orphaned processes if you turn the terminal off, or log out before
closing your apps.
I know that older versions of GDM had a problem with this, but that was
fixed about 2 years
My experience with GDM has been hit and miss. It always cleans up after a clean
logout however when a client drops off the network it may or may not clean up
after the user. I found it necessary to execute a script on a daily cronjob to
catch the odd garbage left over. Its rare that the script
Her logout should be clean. Basically her bash_profil looks like this
(the important parts do anyway):
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] (her login to the server)
exit (cleans her out after she logs off)
That's it. No fancy stuff, really (apart from what's there by
default). I didn't want to screw
Is it just ssh that she is accessing or it via a graphical login? Either way
you are probably looking at a server side issue not a client side(LTSP) issue.
If it is a graphical login which display manager are you using(xdm, gdm, kdm,
etc). To my knowledge sessreg is called by all of these to
Cory,
sessreg doesn't really manage any sessions. It simply adds or removes
entries from the utmp and wtmp files.
Some script should run sessreg to do that work. That same script is
what where you could put commands to kill processes and clean things up.

I guess I wasn't clear enough. I have a script that does just that. It uses
sessreg to kill the logins then I use 2 sweeps of process killing to kill child
processes followed by the parents of any processes that don't die in the first
sweep. To finalize the clean up I unmount the sshfs mounts
Hi Jim and list,
- I read the wiki about the rsize=8192,wsize=8192 trick in the dhcpd.conf
file. It works fine.
- However, I seem to remember that I once put that parm into something
like /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.sysinit (??), can that be true?
- And, would it not work the same way putting the
