(ip address xx'd) how do I kill off this user and all his processes ? ps -t *pts/2 reports: ERROR: TTY could not be found etc therefore I don't know what processes to kill. BTW, what do the *'s represent ? According to man finger they represent denial of write access. But this is definately not the case here. thanks Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
