What this code does is ultimately grab the PID of a users sh and kill it. Sometimes users accidentally close their terminal windows the wrong way and our UNIX logon script does not let them back into the system because it still sees them logged in.
What I would like to do is take this script a step further and have it auto kill the process by finding the PID after the grep sh and sticking that into the kill string.
Is there any build in command in unix to kill all the child process for a given process ID ? If any one has script or command, please let me know.
Thanks
