Server :: Another Session Logged In But Running No Processes?
Jan 30, 2011
My University gives us access to a Linux server, named stud1.
Code:
me@stud1:~$ uname -a
Linux stud1.some.univ.ac 2.6.9-89.31.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Mon Oct 4 21:41:59 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Apparently I was logged in, and never logged out sometime:
Code:
me@stud1:~$ who
<snip>
me pts/37 Jan 30 13:27 (6.6.66.66)
<snip>
me pts/58 Dec 30 19:13
but when trying to find out why I'm still logged in, I can't find it:
Code:
me@stud1:~$ ps faux |grep me
root 30030 0.0 0.0 51128 4360 ? Ss 13:27 0:00 \_ sshd: me [priv]
me 30033 0.0 0.0 51132 2336 ? S 13:27 0:00 \_ sshd: me@pts/37
[code]....
how can I logout this unused session?

I try to write a script which would kill processes of users who are not logged in. My approach is to find out what users are logged in and then kill processes of all nonsystem users who fail the test of being logged. I use `w` for finding all logged in users, but apparently there are users on the list which `w` gives me who own absolutely no process in the output of `ps aux`. How do I log off those users, since killing their processes wont work (since they own no processes)?

I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.1. I notice that when my server gets slow and the load goes up, there is a bunch of processes call mi_dmonq running. Does anyone know what this process does? I tried to find it online but didn't find anything. Also, I tried to find the binary on the server but find doesn't return anything. Does anyone know what it is?

i am using putty to connect to the linux server and i am using nano as my text editor to write a bash script.
this is my script:
echo "Please enter your Username"
read userName
userName= grep $USER /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f5
echo "Welcome " $userName | cat >> output.txt
the problem i have is that when i enter my username, the output (my real name) does not display in the output.txt. instead it displays in putty. so when i run my script in putty it shows the message to enter username and after i enter my username my real name appears below it. i want it to show in the output.txt

Is possible to burn an ISO to a CD while logged into a Live CD session? The issue is I'm logged in on an old 7.10 Live CD and would like to burn a 10.10 CD to do a reinstall after my hard drive broke. I realize of course the system runs from the 7.10 CD, but if it's possible to keep the system running from memory while burning or something.
There are no disc burning tools in the Applications menu, but wodim appears to be available at least, so if there's a way I would seem to have a tool to do the actual burning anyway.

How do I obtain information about the running x-server from a remote shell session? I want to know things like resolution, color depth, etc. My xorg.conf is basically empty. The only thing I can think of doing is to read the Xorg.0.log file which seems inefficient.
I thought that 'xrandr' displayed some text output but that behavior has changed (?). It seems to require an X display. Is there another way? Something I could incorporate into a shell script? (This is Fedora but that shouldn't really matter)

I'm running a VM (headless), and sound only works when I am logged into a gnome session. Sound (from any application, including VLC running in a terminal) is stopped when I switch user. How do I prevent this from happening?

After running Thunderbird, or other X applications between my server and my workstation, processes, notably dbus, remain behind on the server. Over time, they pile up, response becomes so poor I must restart the server to sweep them away. How can this be avoided or better dealt with than an occasionala reboot of the server, clearly not an optimal solution.

When i logged into a gnome desktop i got this message: "The GNOME session manager was unable to read file:'/home/(desktop name)/ICEauthority'. If this file exists it must be readable by you for GNOME to work properly. try logging in with failsafe session and removing the file." What commands do i use for that? or do i need to do something else?

Just installed OpenSUSE 11.2 and I have to say it feels great.Only gripe I currently have is the NetworkManager that is starting up very slowly. When I have logged into KDE KNetworkManager applet says that NetworkManager is not running and hence I have no network connection. This is fixed if I start NetworkManager (as root) or just wait a couple of minutes. I have one ethernet interface only, no wireless

I would like to do the following: Create a banner for any user logging in through ssh which warns him/her about the number of processors being used already by other users (or conversely the number of free processors). For example, if a user logged in he would then see a message like: Warning! 7 out of 8 processors are in use.I already figured out how to do a banner and with ps -e -o pcpu I can get all processes' %CPU usage. I think I would like to count the number of processes which have more than 90% CPU usage and output this number ("7" in the example) in the banner

I have p1,p2,p3,p4 some processes created by me in C. p1, p2, p3 are started individually from several consoles. And I want process p4 to terminates processes p1, p2, p3 if they are running. Which is the easiest way to accomplish that? put all processes in the same process group and send from p4 a kill signal to the group. But I couldn't do that because I cannot call successfully setpgid(getpid(), 15000) from p1-p4. It's there some way to put them in the same group? the processes don't have a child-parent relationship, they are launched manually from consoles.

is there any possible way to hide currently running processes from an user? This means I do not want him to know about what programs/processes does any other user but him run. In short words if that user runs 'ps -aux' he should get only his processes.

First time Ubuntu user (used to be on debian earlier).
I like that everything works out of the box (had to install codecs etc, but thats standard); but I dont like that there are 260 processes running. Is there a utility to stop unnecessary processes from running in Ubuntu 10.10? I used rcconf but there did not seem to be a whole lot of startup processes that were enabled. Yet somehow I am running 260 processes now.
Even if I log into fluxbox, I get 200+ processes running.
