1Gone (C)1998-2010 Joe Marcus Clarke MarcusCom 2 3Gone is a terminal locking program similar to UN*X lock(1). However, 4unlike lock, it is more security-minded. If you leave gone running 5longer than you thought, it will log you out of your current shell. 6Lock just drops you back into your shell. Also, gone has the option of 7being installed setuid to root. If this is done, you will be able to 8have gone extract your password from the system password file/database 9instead of being prompted for it. For more info on gone, read the 10enclosed manpage. 11 12Gone can also lock the terminal indefinitely. This is, of course, not 13recommended for shared systems ;-). 14 15To configure and install gone, do the following: 16 17% gunzip -c gone.tar.gz ; tar -xf - 18% cd gone-current 19% ./configure 20% make all 21% make install 22 23If you want to enable the setuid possibility, run configure as follows: 24 25# env with_setuid=yes ./configure 26(or with *csh) 27# setenv with_setuid yes ; ./configure 28(or with sh derivatives) 29# with_setuid=yes ; ./configure 30 31# make all 32# make install 33 34If you'd like to read the manpage before building and installing gone do 35the following (on most systems): 36 37(either as root or normal user) 38% nroff -man gone.man | more 39 40That manpage will be slightly less formatted than the version that's 41installed with gone, but you'll get all the info you need. If you have 42any questions, please email me at <marcus@marcuscom.com>. 43 44In order to clean up after a build, type ``make clean''. If you want to 45completely clean up (remove all the config.* files), type ``make 46distclean''. 47 48Gone is distributed without any guarantee or warranty. I'll help with 49any problems you may have it, but if your system gets messed up, please 50don't blame me. I've compiled at tested gone under Ultrix 4.5, IRIX 516.2, FreeBSD 2.2.6-8.1, MkLinux 2, Red Hat Linux 6.2, Digital UNIX 4.0D, 52Tru64 4.0F, Solaris 2.5.1, Solaris 8, AIX 4.3.3, and Mac OS X/Darwin. 53It works well on all of them. 54 55Gone is distributed under the BSD license. 56 57$MCom: gone/README,v 1.3 2010/08/01 16:12:28 marcus Exp $ 58
