Hi,

   I have a following question can anyone please help me.

   I am trying to get login on bootup work on Monta Vista work.
   I could get my login process get invoked on bootup and also be able
to
   logout when ever required but i still have the following issue of
getting
   linux shell timed out and lead to a login prompt when there is no
activity
   on the linux shell.

   I need a way to keep track of the linux shell idle timeout value so
that if
   the linux shell is idle for sometime then i can invoke my login
process and
   get back to loginprompt.

   Is there any way on Monta Vista Linux where we can tract the Linux
Shells
   idle timeout and so that if the linux shell is idle for certain
time then we can invoke the login process agains

Thanks in Advance
Krishna

Try adding this line to your .bash_profile

export TMOUT=60

This would set the idle time to 60 seconds. If there is no user input
on the terminal for more than 1 minute, your session get closed.

Naveen.
