You're probably looking for the auto-logout function of the shell. I can't seem to find any mention of such a feature in the Bash manual page, but Tcsh has a shell variable, "autologout" that that provides this functionality. See also the "-forcelogout" option to xlock. I hope that helps. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sylvain Robitaille syl@alcor.concordia.ca Systems analyst Concordia University Instructional & Information Technology Montreal, Quebec, Canada ----------------------------------------------------------------------      |
