Does anyone know if it is possible to have a loginhook and logouthook?
exp:
console "/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/loginwindow
-PowerOffDisabled YES -LoginHook
/Users/Administrator/Scripts/mailLoginToAdmin -LogoutHook
/Users/Administator/Scripts/logout" vt100 on secure
window=/System/Library/CoreServices/WindowServer
onoption="/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"

Any info would be great. Thanks.

Have you read http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Essentials/SystemOverview/BootingLogin/
Customization_Techniques.html ?

I've gotten both login and logout hooks to work.

The docs say that both the login and logout hooks can be "The full path to a script or tool to run when the user succesfully logs in/out."

I've been able to use a script for login but not for logout (I suspect that the logout hook is run after loginwindow has shut down the user's shell). The only success with logout has been to create and use a tool.
