why are you killing the pts after grace time
sry for the neewbe question

sorry didn't see your question before - "sshd: [a-zA-Z]+@pts" kills ssh session to prevent session being left (at desk for example). Anyway this can be done better ;) - and i dont think it still works - better use bt (i wrote another script for this ;) )

why not use screen to move your session with you?
