(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Good morning,

i'm new to poppy and i found it very useful for my organization.
I'm trying to re-use old machines as thin client and i've found a guide to set-up it in a proper mode.
I've inserted the following lines into .xinitrc file to start up remote desktop as puppy boot up:

rm -f /etc/.XLOADED

mount -r /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

/usr/bin/rdesktop -a 16 -u "" -f -d DOMAIN -r sound -r disk:D=/mnt/cdrom SEVERIP

/usr/X11R7/bin/wmpoweroff

It works fine but i wanted the machine power off as i log-off from remote desktop session so i inserted the last line.
As i log off the machine doesn't power off but it presents puppy desktop.
Any ideas?

Regards

Luca
