Hi Corona688, it's actually NOT working. Even though we're able to kill the bash (shell) but the screen session socket still exists (that's the whole point of having a session - not to lose session if there's disconnection to the server etc.). Just login into the server and running "screen -r" still restores my session and one can see what is going on the session.
So I changed your script as below and now its working fine ( basically I'm killing the screen session)
Luckily screen offers us to name every session so you can use that name (instead of PID which is a random number) to kill/attach/detach. Now It's working as expected. Thanks for all the help!
Hello;
I have Solaris 2.6 installed on many Sun AXI Ultra Sparc IIi systems. I want to set the Lock Screen global timeout for all users to 15 minutes. I read the Solaris CDE guide which instructed me to create a /etc/dt/config/C/sys.resources file and changed the timout to 15 minutes in... (1 Reply)
I am executing test.sh script. But this script takes lot of time and in the meantime the shell timeouts without completing the script.
Is there any command which will continue processing the script.

We recently moved servers to a new data center, and now we're experiencing user sessions timing out after non-activity. We didnt experience this before, or know of any timeout settings that may have been changed.
Any things I can check out on the server? (3 Replies)
SSHing into a machine can take a few seconds, but after I'm in, the commands return quickly. I was wondering if the timeout setting can be changed once I'm logged into the machine. Does anyone know if this can be set on the fly? The problem here is, if I have to set timeout = 10, it'll take 10... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I had add the following line into .profile and .bash_profile for the timeout session to avoid putty close automatically :
timeout=10800
However, i still keep encounter session time out every after 60 seconds.
Can anyone please help advice.
Many Thanks! (2 Replies)
Hi All
I need to set timeout of login session of a user if a user is idle for some time.
I know the TMOUT setting but it work with only BASH & KORN shell only as I need to set for Bourne shell also. I am trying to put "ClientAliveInterval 300" in sshd_config & restart or refreshing the... (1 Reply)
Friends,
Could anyone let me know - how to set the timeout value for ssh session to HMC? My HMC version is -- V7R7.4.0. I'm sure the version doesn't have anything to do with it.
Thanks,

CEREAL(1) User Commands CEREAL(1)NAME
cereal - client program to attach to cereal session
SYNOPSIS
cereal command [args]
DESCRIPTION
cereal is the client program to attach to a running cereal session.
SUBCOMMANDS
cereal takes various subcommands:
attach SESSION
Attach to (take control of) cereal session SESSION. This puts the user into a cereal console, provided by a command-restricted
screen session. To detach from an attached session, use "C- d". For help on other available commands, use "C- ?". Cereal uses a
limited instance of screen to provide the console. See screen(1) for more info on the available commands. `a' may be used in place
of `attach'.
follow [options] SESSION
Follow (watch, without being able to intervene) a cereal session SESSION. The options are: -c [--cat] to cat log instead of follow;
-p [--path] to output just the path to the log file and exit. `f' may be used in place of `follow'.
list [SESSION]...
List session(s). With no arguments, will list all sessions. The leading three characters in the list indicate: whether the session
is running (+) or not (-) or in some unknown state (?), whether the user can attach to the session (a) or not (-), whether the user
can follow the session (f) or not (-). If the session state is unknown (?), it's usually because the user asking for information
about the session can't read the session stat file. `l' may be used in place of `list'.
help Output a brief usage summary. `h' or `?' may be used in place of `help'.
EXIT STATUS
Exit status is 0 if OK, 1 if minor problems, 2 if serious trouble.

BUGS
If the invoking user does not have read and execute access to the cereal session's supervise directory, `cereal list' may not always indi-
cate that session's status accurately.
