Question Can you kill off other sessions (gui and terminal)


When I do a w or who command from ssh I sse that I am logged in to the gui several times along with a few other ssh sessions. Is there a way, maybe from root, to kill those extra sessions?

yes, you can simply kill the terminal/ssh session - use ps to find out PID, and then use kill to terminate the process
