Should we run killer on diskless workstations and thin clients? I am
not sure.
If killer works reliably, then: yes (for diskless workstations). Otherwise, diskless workstations (not sure about thin clients, actually) will not get affected by shutdown-at-night if users forgot to log out.
The expected behaviour would be for diskless workstations:o killer ends still-running / not-logged-off sessions after 6h of session duration
o shutdown-at-night turns of the diskless machine within the next hour Greets, Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, herweg 7, 24357 fleckeby fon: +49 (1520) 1976 148 GnuPG Key ID 0x25771B31 mail: mike.gabriel@das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.xfb
