I&#8217;m a big supporter of open-source solutions, recognizing their potential in the right scenarios. However, this preference isn&#8217;t without its challenges. Open-source systems demand a deeper understanding, requiring time and effort that might not always be available, especially when deep-diving into complicated configuration files.<\/p><p>Currently, I&#8217;m gearing up for an upcoming session at Cisco Live.

This can be useful for freeing up system resources that would otherwise be occupied by inactive sessions.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><p><strong>DisconnectedTimeLimit=0<\/strong><\/p><ul><li><strong>Purpose<\/strong>: This parameter sets a time limit (in milliseconds) for how long a disconnected session is allowed to remain idle before it&#8217;s terminated.<\/li><li><strong>Effect<\/strong>: Setting it to <code>0<\/code> effectively means that there is no time limit. The session will remain disconnected indefinitely until some other action or policy terminates it. This setting is particularly relevant when <code>KillDisconnected<\/code> is set to <code>false<\/code>, allowing disconnected sessions to persist for manual reconnection or administrative handling.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ol><p>Please change the following values in the \/etc\/xrp\/seman.ini:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d040142 elementor-widget elementor-widget-code-highlight\" data-id=\"d040142\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"code-highlight.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"prismjs-default copy-to-clipboard \">\n\t\t\t<pre data-line=\"\" class=\"highlight-height language-markup line-numbers\">\n\t\t\t\t<code readonly=\"true\" class=\"language-markup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<xmp>KillDisconnected=true\nDisconnectedTimeLimit=0<\/xmp>\n\t\t\t\t<\/code>\n\t\t\t<\/pre>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3d9abb0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3d9abb0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">User session changes<\/h6>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e2c99c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7e2c99c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Disable the composition which is responsible for advanced graphical features like transparency, shadows, and animations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ef0440f elementor-widget elementor-widget-code-highlight\" data-id=\"ef0440f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"code-highlight.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"prismjs-default copy-to-clipboard \">\n\t\t\t<pre data-line=\"\" class=\"highlight-height language-markup line-numbers\">\n\t\t\t\t<code readonly=\"true\" class=\"language-markup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<xmp>$ xfconf-query --channel=xfwm4 --property=\/general\/use_compositing --type=bool --set=false --create\n<\/xmp>\n\t\t\t\t<\/code>\n\t\t\t<\/pre>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44742c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"44742c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I also had the annoying message &#8220;<strong>System program problem detected<\/strong>&#8221; after a login.\u00a0 To disable this pop-up change the file as shown below.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4703954 elementor-widget elementor-widget-code-highlight\" data-id=\"4703954\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"code-highlight.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"prismjs-default copy-to-clipboard \">\n\t\t\t<pre data-line=\"\" class=\"highlight-height language-markup line-numbers\">\n\t\t\t\t<code readonly=\"true\" class=\"language-markup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<xmp>$ sudo cat \/etc\/default\/apport \n# set this to 0 to disable apport, or to 1 to enable it\n# you can temporarily override this with\n# sudo service apport start force_start=1\nenabled=0\n<\/xmp>\n\t\t\t\t<\/code>\n\t\t\t<\/pre>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9852efd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9852efd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Conclusion<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3668b4b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3668b4b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>While open-source software offers flexibility, control, and cost-effectiveness, it also demands a deeper technical understanding and a readiness to tackle hands-on configuration challenges.<\/p><p>This experience serves as a reminder that in the realm of system engineering, especially when dealing with shared user environments, the choice between open-source and proprietary software isn&#8217;t just about preference, but also about practicality and efficiency.\u00a0<\/p><p>While out-of-the-box systems offer convenience and immediate functionality, they frequently require performance tuning to meet specific operational needs.
