Killing pts/#

[tristan308]

I have a remote vendor log into our box to work on some software. The software locked up so he just closed his telnet session. Now when I do a who the pts/# shows up along with the remote IP address. My question is, how do I get the PID number for that pts and kill it. I tried doing a ps -t pts/# and got the pid then killed it, but when I do a who its still showing up. Any help would be great!

Hello,
If you have a modem then there is setting in modem that will close the connection and you do not have to worry about killing the process.
go to

http://www.ibm.com/pseries

and find technical document on configure of modem and it will take care of your issue.
