Re: ESD options

["Yo 'Ric Dude" <ericmit ix netcom com>]

I have mine started and stopped in my xdm 
Give/Take Console scripts.

GiveConsole:
------------
# start esd for them...
su -c "/usr/bin/esd &" $USER

TakeConsole:
------------
# reset esd for the next person
killall esd

Setting it up in the init scripts may confuse
the problem of when to reset the server for 
the next user to log in to the machine.
