zwgc question...

Not sure if this is the right place or not, but here goes. I grabbed
the zephyr.940217 snapshot and got it working on all our platforms. The only
thing I can't seem to get working is having "zwgc -ttymode" die when I logout.
I've tried:

zwgc -ttymode -nofork &

And that still doesn't work. Is there something funky going on with tcsh
and/or my hacked up login.krb program? I seem to recall DECathena's zwgc
also didn't seem to die when in tty mode either.

Needless to say I can't release this stuff because the zwgc clients
hang around and the next person that logs on that tty will get zephyrgrams
sent to pervious person.

Any suggestions? I was thinking of modifying zwgc so it would check to see
if its parent still exists before it sent a zephyrgram. If the parent
didn't exist it could just exit.

Seems like the HUG signal stuff should work though...

thanks, Roland
