login-monitor-active 1 user commands nosh login-monitor-active start/stop user manager and runtime services for active login sessions login-monitor-active --verbose --active-file activefile --target-prefix string --manager-prefix string --runtime-prefix string login-monitor-active automatically runs system-control1 to reset/stop user manager and runtime services as users are inserted into/deleted from the active logins table in the login database. It loops forever, monitoring the state of the active logins table file with kevent2 waiting for it to be modified. Renaming or unlinking the file requires restarting login-monitor-active. When a new user appears in the active logins table, not already logged in, login-monitor-active issues a reset to start/stop the user@username, user-services@username, and user-runtime@username target and services (respectively) for the user. The prefixes in front of username can be changed with the --target-prefix, --manager-prefix, and --runtime-prefix command-line options. When the last login record for a user disappears, login-monitor-active issues a stop to unconditionally stop those. Where the file is varies by operating system. On FreeBSD, it is /var/run/utx.active, for example. The getutxent3 manual page usually gives the location. The --active-file command-line option forces the use of activefile instead, if this is supported by the C runtime library. If the services do not exist, it makes no attempt to create them. All such services for all users should be enabled and disabled in the usual way, and reset will respect that. ttylogin-starter4 auto-starter for login services that enable users to log-on in the first place Jonathan de Boyne Pollard
