Hi Gurus,
We installed tru64 5.0a with enhanced security on our boxes. However
when connections are made through ssh and users start to run any
program, the nice number (set to 20) stablished in the security controls
of the account manager is not obeyed. As a result, the machine does not
allow any further logins, even for root, because the cpu gets too busy
running the code with high priority. This happens when the user eventually
forgets to renice his process to 20. This also occurred when we had tru64
4.0 but the super user could login and renice the eager process manually.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem? In the old times I heard
about "autonice", a code that could renice processes automatically but I
do not know if this would work under 5.0a.
TIA,
