well, do consider a console login and a 'startx', xlock running and you out on lunch break, while i come into your office, hit ctrl-alt-del, and scp all your confidential docs to me so that i can then exploit all this knowledge... sure you'd find out, but then it's too late. so if you dislike xdm, at least set NoZap in XF86Config! martin [greetings from the heart of the sun]# echo [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1:[EMAIL PROTECTED]@@@.net -- "there are more things in heaven and earth, horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." -- hamlet
