Unloging a user??
This one is I guess really easy but I still don't know it. When I do finger I can see all the users which are connected to my server, the question is how can I remove any of them (I'am logged as a root). ??

finger.conf
FINGER.CONF(5) BSD File Formats Manual FINGER.CONF(5)
NAME
finger.conf -- finger(1) alias configuration file
DESCRIPTION
The optional finger.conf file is used to provide aliases that can be fingered by local and network users. This may be useful where a user's
login name is not the same as their preferred mail address, or for providing virtual login names than can be fingered.
Lines beginning with ``#'' are comments. Other lines must consist of an alias name and a target name separated by a colon. A target name
should be either a user, a forward reference to another alias or the path of a world readable file.
Where an alias points to a file, the contents of that file will be displayed when the alias is fingered.
FILES
/etc/finger.conf finger(1) alias definition data base
EXAMPLES
# /etc/finger.conf alias definition file
#
# Format alias:(user|alias)
#
# Individual aliases
#
markk:mkn
john.smith:dev329
john:dev329
sue:/etc/finger/sue.txt
#
# Network status message
#
status:/usr/local/etc/status.txt
#
# Administrative redirects
#
root:admin
postmaster:admin
abuse:admin
#
# For the time being, 'sod' is sysadmin.
