- I have to echo this question. I'm running SLS 0.98pl1 with the
- 0.98.pl4 kernel and I've noticed that if someone just hangs up
- without logoff then they're >NOT< logged off. It looks like the
- controling process is terminated, but if they're in a child process
- then the parent is just left hanging.
-
- Is this a bug in the kernel or in init or what?
-
- I consider it a pretty serious problem for a public access system to not
- have a user logged off when they hang up the phone for whatever reason!
