    Hey ladies and gents-

    I had someone SSHed into my box the other day (my laptop) while at
    work and I wanted to screw with him by booting him off. I obviously
    have root on my box, but I wonder if there is any "official" or
    "proper" way to make a user leave the system?

    Something along the lines of a "kick" is what I'm after. I achieved
    the same result by killing his topmost bash process, but not only is
    that probably dangerous and unpredictable, it doesn't let me add a
    mean message ;-)

    What do sysadmins do if they find a user is doing something malicious
    and they want them gone? From a real world standpoint I can see the
    benefits to having such a capacity, even if my intentions are less
    than noble.

    Thanks ;-)
