How is this done? Is this a separate daemon, or an option to compile in these daemons? Another way - can we looked through the logged in users at regular intervals and find out who's disconnected? You could compare this against the list of logged in users ('show sessions'), but we'd have to differentiate from users who are telnetted in from somewhere else... -- miguel a.l. paraz iphil communications, makati, philippines
