I need some input from this great list.

When a user signs onto the system the initial startup puts their user name
into the *LDA.  This is then used by my distribution package to put their
name onto all of the document that print from them. e.g. Pick Tickets,
Telephone inquiries, etc.   The problem that is occurring is that a user
will leave for lunch and not sign off.  Another user will then sit down at
their desk and produce a document.  I need a way to selectively disconnect a
terminal based on user profile, when their is no activity.  The system will
disconnect a job but it will do it for all terminals.  This is not
acceptable.

FYI  a little company information.

The company was started in 92 with originally 5 employees.  The
president/owner, The sales manager - owners son,  a salesman, and
accountant, and me.  The "problem users are the president and salesmanager.
We are a very small company.

TIA
