Hi,

I'm not sure that you must be so severe with your users 8 ))).
In any case, the command
who -T
if you run it as root gives you PID of parent users' shell.
You can cneck the last field of the output, which gives the terminal of the session.

You can collect users informations and terminal with who -Ru

Collect the terminal informations using ps as
ps -t

It will list out process related to that user login

kill -9

That is all.

Hi Amit,

Use "who" command to find out list of users logged in then you can list the process owned by the user with the following command
#ps -eaf|grep amit
here amit is the user. Then you can kill all the process for the related user. If any user logged in thought network the see the tty for that user and againg list the process and kill those process. In case of root you can distiguish by the tty. This way you can kill all the logged in users and their process. In case
