com.apple.sessionDidMoveOffConsole - for fast user switching com.apple.sessionDidMoveOnConsole - for fast user switching

2) Users that log in using ssh don't have things run from loginwindow.plist (login items). This is also why I suggested monitoring ALL events, so that behaviors like ssh users can be verified. It should be a piece of cake to avoid interference from ssh users. Paul

As a stupid question, have you handled two unusual cases:

(1) There are multiple users logged in?

(2) What happens when a user logs in via ssh, independent of the normal display? The two possible problem cases here are logging in when no-one is logged in and having the display user log out while someone is still logged in via ssh.
