- Well, I think it's a pretty well known bug that diskless indigos
- have problems with such things as idle times of users, etc.
- Just as a quick summary, "w" reports:
-
- greendog q0 greendog@max 10:04pm 32days 3 1 w
-
- The idle time always seems to be the amount of time since we installed
- the operating system!
-
- Is there some quick/dirty fix for this? Like some file that needs
- to be 'touched' or something? Will SGI ever fix this in 4.x.x?
- It screws up our accounting and some other things (like condor, rwho)...
