Using the most recent updates from rawhide i can't reproduce this problem. I'll close the bug with RAWHIDE for now. If you could update your system with the rawhide kernel/glibc and the newest rFOO tools (rsh, rusers etc.) and check if the problem is actually gone i'd really appreciate it. Thanks, Read ya, Phil *** Bug 42890 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This bug has resurfaced its ugly head in RedHat 7.3 (or maybe was never squashed correctly). I notice that it only shows up for users who appear to have not logged out correctly, which shows up in `last` as "gone - no logout". [jmbastia@consult ~]$ last | more jmbastia pts/1 astra Tue May 28 14:18 still logged in root pts/1 astra Tue May 28 13:20 - 13:21 (00:00) hsuenaga pts/3 Thu May 23 20:38 - 20:39 (00:01) hsuenaga pts/2 Thu May 23 16:48 gone - no logout ... 'hsuenaga' shows up as still logged in through rusers/finger/who. Note that the 'w' command does show who is logged in correctly. Yeah, seen that with the other tools as well. This seems to have been a kde bug at some point and might be if connections are simply dropped and the wtmp/utmp files don't get updated correctly. One of the tools did it right, so i'll check that if i can find the difference in how they 'login' status of a user is determined. Read ya, Phil It seems as if the bug hasn't resurfaced, at least for me it works now nicely again with RH 9, FC1 and RHEL3. Closing the bug as works for me now. Read ya, Phil |
