I've had good results using the debian "slay" command called by /etc/X11/gdm/PostSession/Default.
You can download slay as a .tar.gz http://ftp.port80.se/debian/pool/main/s/slay/ Note that I also remove all /tmp/ files owned by the user in a fairly sloppy manner. (I depend on unix permissions to protect files not owned by the user.) The important part of PostSession/Default is: ---------- if [ "$USER" != "root" ] ; then rm -rf /tmp/* slay $USER fi ---------- My entire PostSession/Default is: ---------- #!/bin/sh PATH="/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/opt/X11R6/bin:$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin" SESSREG=`which sessreg 2>/dev/null` if [ "x$SESSREG" != "x" ] ; then "$SESSREG" -d -w /var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "$X_SERVERS" -h "$REMOTE_HOST" -l "$DISPLAY" "$USER" fi if [ "$USER" != "root" ] ; then rm -rf /tmp/* slay $USER fi exit 0 ---------- --- Sean Carolan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Greetings gang: > > I'm looking for a simple way to kill off any > leftover, orphan, or > defunct processes that remain alive after a user is > disconnected from > the server. > > We are running Fedora Core 3 and GDM as the display > manager. > > I have read a little about using the postsession > script to kill these > processes off, but haven't found a really clear > instruction on how to > accomplish this. > > Any input is most welcome. > > Thanks > > Sean > > -- > Sean Carolan > Medical Resource USA > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide > Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT > Products from real users. > Discover which products truly live up to the hype. > Start reading now. > http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=6595&alloc_id=14396&op=click > _____________________________________________________________________ > Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
