Re: [Condor-users] Console Logins

Hi,

I'm think what you're referring to is described in the manual, 
specifically in section 3.6.8.4:

 
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v6.8/3_6Startd_Policy.html#SECTION00468400000000000000

Also, 3.6.10.1 describes the built-in blinky lights condor provides to 
tell you whether the keyboard/console is being used:

 
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v6.8/3_6Startd_Policy.html#SECTION004610100000000000000

If you have these settings in your configuration, but they aren't 
working properly (e.g. condor isn't detecting your USB keyboard/mouse as 
part of the console), that's a different problem that you should mention 
you are having trouble with.

Good luck!
