Script to kill an user proccess

[GNOM]

Hi,
I need help to make a shell script to kill automatically all process of a given user.
So I'll give the user $LOGNAME and the scrip should kill all proccess of this user.

Thanks for your help

See the attached "resetuser" script.

Or in short:

kill - $(ps -fu|awk '{print $2}')

Thanks,

How can I set the UID to root
so that no root users be able to execute the script.
bye

Use sudo, it allows to run scripts as other users and you jave a full control over it.

And here is a version compiled for HPUX:

Hi Amignom ,

Simply use this command it will kill the users session:

1. If sudo permission has been set to your user , or use as a root user.


#PROC=`ps -fu username | grep -v PID | awk '{print $2}'` ; kill -9 `echo $PROC`
-----------------------------------------


username= The username whose proceses you want to kill.

Cheers ,

Veri.
