Automatic Logoff

Post by Rickliftig » Mon Aug 16, 2010 2:31 am

One of the feature requests that has never quite made it to the top is for automatic log-off of a user (specifically, Jessica and Tracey in my office :lol: )

I just came across this program http://www.sinvise.net/home/projects/so ... down-timer Shutdown Timer,. Anyone ever try it?


What are the main features of Shutdown Timer?

Ability to:

Shutdown
Restart
Logoff
Lock
Hibernate
Standy
Monitor Standby
Open a file
Open a Web Page
Based on Date & Time
CPU/Memory Utilisation
CPU Temperature
Networking Usage
Process Management
Ability to save your settings for future use
Completely Portable, You can take it on a USB if you want to!

To answer my own question - It's a good one-shot program, but as far as keeping on a schedule, or repeating events, it fails. In short - don't use it.

Rick-

This one has bugged me for a long time 8)

I've been looking into the concepts for a few days now, it doesn't appear too complex - so don't be surprised if this functionality is released as a plugin for a temporary fix anyways!
