What's wrong:
Toehold never closes /etc/utmp. Examine code in wait_alarm():
if((file = open(utmpf, O_RDONLY, 0)) >= 0) {
while(read(file, (char *) &utmp, sizeof(utmp)) > 0) {
if(*utmp.ut_name) goto no_deactivate;
}
deactivate_workstation();
}
/* Here if someone's logged in or we can't open utmp */
no_deactivate:
/* If we don't have an X, restart toehold */
if(!wpid) {
die(0);
}
What should have happened:
It should clean up, like all good programs.
