Excuse the pun. :) I need help with determining the users logged in, etc.

Given this actual example:

1. [tstone@vahalla tstone]$ who -l -H
2. USER     LINE     LOGIN-TIME   FROM
3. tstone   pts/0    Jan 21 16:21
4. tstone   pts/1    Jan 21 16:21
5. tstone   pts/4    Jan 15 15:26
6. tstone   pts/2    Jan 21 16:22
7. tstone   pts/3    Jan 24 09:29 (10.40.100.80)

I'm trying to run down the logins...

Line 1 is of course the command the produced the output.
Line 2 is the result of the -H switch
Line 3-6 are the logins in question.
Line 7 is the login that produced the output

Looking closely at the four (4) logins associated with Lines 3-6:

Lines 4 & 6 are stdin logins (terminals open in konsole)

What are lines 3 & 5? As close as I can determine Line 5 is the login associated with 
restarting the box. But I haven't the faintest clue what Line 3's login is for.

Is there a more descriptive tool that points back to the processes or reasons for the 
logins?

Finally, if I find a rogue login, how can I terminate it?

Warmest Regards,
Tim
