Force logoff
 
I seem to have a stray user on my server. How do I force that user instance to log off?

Thanks

try
Code:
# su user
$ logout
That may work :-)

Use the "skill" command:

skill 9 -u userid

If there are multiple logins, and you only want to kill one, then use the "w" command to find the tty, and use the '-t' option on skill.
