Hi. I'm sure there's more than one way to do it, but try
who
The who command will tell you all the users loged into the system.
Then use
ps aux|grep username
Substitute the user you want to kill for username. Notice the process
id for everything running as that user and to
kill -9 pid
Play around and see what happens. If you take out the bash process for
the user on a specific tty, you will usually kill every other process on
that tty.
Like I said, play around and see how it will work. I'm probably not
explaining well, but you will see what I mean by playing.
Hope this helps.
