OK, I am going to reformulate my question. Just for the case I was not clear (English is not my language): When I do "who" command, I see who is logged on, right? Now, after my remote session is broken, and I make another one, then I can see not only myself logged in, but also "myself" from previous session(s) - the broken one(s)...The "who" command shows phantom user from previous session, but I know they are not there any more. I presume there are some processes still left from previous broken session(s). Am I correct? I would like to know how I should act in such situations, in order to clean the system of all remaining stuff from my previous session??? Thanx again RMS rms wrote:
I have experienced this several times by now:
1. I start a ssh connection from a Win box to SuSE 7.2 using win ssh client (puTTY, if that's of any importance. 2. Then (surprisingly) my win box dies - I just try to do something and win doesn't agree :-) (This is not part of the question) 3. After restarting my win box, and doing ssh reconnect, I try "who" command and see old ssh users as they are still there, alive, but I know they're not.
Now, I want to get rid of them. I killed all the old bashs and other processes I know were started in previous session, but when I try "who" I still see previous user (me) there...
Which process I have to kill in order to "get clean" again?
I know reboot helps (I tried), but I need another way...
TIA
