Smile time out for a Client application
Hi ,

I have a Application running on unix ,

how could i log out the user if the user doest use the application for specified period of time .

using TMOUT it log out the session but with $prompt.

But here i am inside the application , i would like to logout the user from application and come to $ prompt and then log out from the session,

Is there any way to do this UNIX.

Generally yes : lsof | grep user | grep application-name
Then you'll find the PID and kill it.

It's rather rude to do so...., that said, you can send a signal to all processes belonging to your terminal session.

From the Linux manpage for kill..
Code:
       If pid equals -1, then sig is sent to every process for which the calling process has permission  to  send  signals,  except  for  process  1
       (init), but see below.

       If  pid  is less than -1, then sig is sent to every process in the process group -pid.
