first locate the process, for example, user logged in using ssh .

ps -ef | grep ssh


then, get the pid and kill the process .

That's it.

Fernando.

man pkill

Code:
who -u

will show the pid of the login process. Killing that process would log the user out, however you may also need to cleanup an child processes, which could continue to run without the parent if they ignore SIGHUP.

Never use kill -9 on a process as a first resort.
