This is for engineers at work. They want to be able to connect to their consoles remotely. We are using RHEL 3 WS, the tool is only supported on this platform. The idea is the same as it would be in Fedora though. Start an X application when the users logs in and kill it when they log out. I don't mind being pointed to a how to or even KDE/Gnome documentation. I was able to get KDE to start the process, it just won't die when the user logs out.
