Great work, thanks!
The system is a little bit old already:
~> uname -a
FreeBSD wep4035 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #0 r202285: Thu Jan 14 19:04:21 CET 2010 root@wep4035:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
but nevetheless, looks like ftpd does not logout (or whatever):
~> ac -p
ftp 3305.13
root 14.92
lexx 63.20
total 3383.25
Standard ftpd from base:
2011 ?? Is 0:00.03 /usr/libexec/ftpd -D -Am
Two shots of w(1), during ftp session from localhost:
