I have set up another SuSE as a firewall to another node on the network and they are so impressed i nearly have the go ahead to convert the lot to SuSE. But to find out why this logged off problem is happening would help me explain to them why this has happend. Could it be a fault in the hardware or something like a false positive/reading???
Just because the user is logged off does not mean the computer is doing nothing. Both Windows and Linux have dozens of programs running even when all users are logged off.
If you want them off POWER THEM DOWN.
Any number of things can be going on... Checking for updates Renewing their dynamic IPs Synchronizing clocks Electing Browse masters Answering ARP requests.. Spewing Spam from a spam bot... --- The list goes on and on...
If the machine is on, its doing something, if you don't like that you have to turn it off. Power down. Pull the plug.
Ben, I'm a little worried about you. You talk like you are setting up your own IT department but then you come with a question like this... Scares me!
