Me too. Remmers' sense of taking charge is something we need more of on
the BoD. Thank you Remmers!

You're welcome, although I was wearing my staff hat more than my board hat.

You can wear both hats at once. If one had the bill pointing forward,
and the other backward, then perhaps you'd look something like Sherlock
Holmes.

We could use the "silly hat fund" to buy Remmers a Sherlock Holmes hat.
He would need a Calabash Pipe too, although he would probably just blow
bubbles with it.

other day.

Turned off idled. Also commented out the code in /etc/rc.local that
invokes it, so that it won't start if the system reboots. Let's keep
our eyes open and see whether or not problems arise.
I looked at the robocop source code to see if it depends in idled in any
way. Apparently it does not.

can we then run 'screen' from work, go home and start again ?

Re #43: When I, at least, said robocop "depends on" idled, I meant that robocop
wouldn't kill a process with a living parent, and so to prevent someone from
running eggdrop, say, idled would kill their shell, and *then* robocop would
kill the daemon.

Except a person trying to run eggdrop isn't likely to stay logged in
after it doesn't work because of the network restrictions.

In the absence of idled, people can presumably run daemons that don't
access blocked network services. But then, they could do that before by
running them in conjunction with a (trivial to implement) idled defeater.

By the way, uh, just for the sake of the item, the following is a shell script
you can run in the background to foil that nasty idle killer:
#!/bin/sh
while :
do
touch `tty`
sleep 59
done
I think I stole that from like jp2 or someone a million years ago, but it's
what I've used ever since, when I've had need for such a thing. :(
