I can help a little with this one perhaps. You'll need to do a little bit of work though :) Some time ago a friend (James McArthur) of mine posted a random signature perl script that checked to make sure it wasn't running already, then piped to a signature file. You could modify this to achieve the same effect for 'shortcuts'. It's only small, but for purposes of netiquette, I'll send it to you off the list (and anyone else thats interested). > and > > Two: another that can somehow kill processes if a client is just reset > rather than logged off? If the processes aren't killed when the connection dies, as many people have stated they would expect should happen, then you could make a little cron script that checked for users, and killed everything not belonging to a current logged on user. You might be able to use 'users' for this. Just a thought. HTH, -- Iain Buchanan <iain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Never be afraid to tell the world who you are. -- Anonymous
