kill idle users
Hi,

In my network we uses the NetTerm program to connect us to HP-UX 10.x server from windows workstations, but in some cases the user doesn't logout and close it by window's x button. The problem is that in HP-UX the user and all his tasks remain active and when he enter again HP-UX creates a new session without kill the old session. My question is how can I configure my server to kill the idle session or at least another solution?

Thanks..

Thumbs up I found this link also...
I am in the process of trying to figure out the configuration file to set the amount of time a user can idle. I didn't see anything in the files about removing orphaned sessions. I will continue to investigate and post my findings.

What happens to the user's background processes? I am assuming if they are not "nohup"ed they will be killed.

Thumbs up The TMOUT setting rules
I have instituted the TMOUT entry and it works like a charm. Thanks for the help.
