There are several users whon are using VNC to invoke a remote desktop on a Red Hat 7.3 server. The VNC program is automatically started at server bootup via the /etc/rc.local file, where each user account is invoked. One example is the following:
su username -c /usr/bin/vncserver :number The problem that I have encountered is there are a number of processes that appear to still be running even after the users close out of VNC. One example was vim. There were several instances of vim still running even though the user who was supposedly running the command was not logged into the system. Furthermore, the command was taking up an inordinately hight amount of CPU time that could have been better served for other purposes. The who -i command showed user accounts logged onto the system that were idle for several days. This I attributed to VNC. Has anyone had a problem similar to this, and if so what caused this to occur, and what corrective actions were taken thereafter? Thanks in advance for the help. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
