What were you trying to do?
Iwas typing a report into ez over a telnet to this machine
What's wrong:
The damn machine did an AUTOLOGOUT on me!
What should have happened:
Maybe if it let me keep my ez window it would have been nice!
Comments:
The software on these machines is screwed up. The AUTOLOGOUT
mechanism is to protect the machines from being tied up by people who
don't use them. If it is going to make the machines unusable then there
is no need for it. GET RID of all the shit that you have put on these
machines in the name of protection of other users! We ARE the other users!
