The following reply was made to PR kern/27616; it has been noted by GNATS. From: David Malone <dwmalone@maths.tcd.ie> To: yar@bsd.chem.msu.ru Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: kern/27616: Syscons history permits peeking in the previous session output Date: Thu, 24 May 2001 15:33:59 +0100 > >How-To-Repeat: > > Log off a FreeBSD vty, hit ScrollLock, scroll to the > terminated session contents using Up or PageUp and see your > decrypted love-letters, private talks etc. Couldn't you set the size of the scroll-back buffer to zero if this upsets you or your users? (kbdcontrol -h 1 will effectively do this). Alot of terminal emulators would have this problem. (Loosing the scroll back buffer on logout would be likely to upset some people 'cos it means that console log messages would be erased.) David.
