Samir,

Yes there is, 1st set resource_limit = TRUE in the init.ora file. 2nd bounce the database. 3rd create a profile for those who are the inconsiderate bunch and set idle_timeout = x where x is in minutes. Their session will show up in V$session as sniped. You can then easily put together a perl script or something similar, I use Pro*C, that kills off the Unix process and really terminates their session. Works like a charm.

Hi All,

I am facing problems with a database with some very irresponsible users who just connect
to the database from their applications and simply dont logout. Apart from the usual
chidings I have been giving them, could any of you please tell me whether any
parameter exists which can be put either in the sqlnet.ora file or database parameter file
which will timeout and close the idle connections after a particular time interval ??

Thanks,

Samir
