Re: Shutting down XWin after session? (-once option)

[Alexander <ping2weltall at gmail dot com>]

Dear Boscolio,
do you start on the connected Unix machine a program which goes not into 
the background or does not finish. I have the same configuration which 
works well except when I start a program which keeps connected to the 
terminal. In this case XWin won't shut down untill the remote program is 
finished.
