Hi all
A customer has some scripts that use 'w' (similar to finger) to work out which user have been idle for more than a certain amount of time, but have realised that once they have logged in and started using the Genero system the idle time simply reports the time since they logged in - I'm guessing this is because it's not communicating over the same route as they did to login. If they start using the Informix SQL screen then their idle time gets updated.
Their box is running Solaris, and they are using Genero 2.1.
Does anyone have any light to shed on this?
Thanks
