I don't know why he wants it, but I was hoping to use it so that could log into one VC and then open up 3-4 others. I usually log into 4-5 VC's at a time, and it would be nice not to have to type my user name and password every time. However, it only works if I am root. I don't know if this is a bug or what.
By the same token, I thought about using the slay package on myself as a quick logout. I finally decided it would be just as secure to use vlock, and a lot less work, but I haven't tried it yet. That's just my two cents worth on the subject. Patrick On Fri, 3 Sep 1999, Eric G . Miller wrote: > My guess is, you have gotten much response because few people are > familiar with that package.
