We have recently discovered that when a person logs out from our Iris running
3.3.1 at random times a process will still show up when we xeq  % ps -ef

This process will look something like:

  b30607 12294     1  0 JAN 3    ttyd3     0:01 -csh

Could anyone tell me why this process stays behind?  Or is there a way of
making it die once you exit?  (besides kill -9 or killall)  

NOTE:  Notice that I said it occurs randomly.

Mail replies directly to me at:

Thanks.
