That works! ;->

Believe it or not, though, it's not unknown to have background processes
running on a host -- a host not in a locked server room -- that you'd
rather not be killed by some passing user, and still permit others to
also login at the local console.

Understand, please, that I've never happened to use slim. When I
install an x window manager, I almost always use xdm.

Certainly, from the description, that design seems a very appropriately
cautious one.
