If ever you are logged into ACENET via a PC and the connection is broken,
either by a power outage, CPU reset, CNTRL-ALT-DEL, or Alt-X please log back
in and clean up any "hung" processes left running associated with the lost
connection.  The procedure for removing "hung" processes described below
can also be used if you have trouble getting a runaway program to quit.

After improper loss of connection:
Log back in
At a unix prompt, enter "ps"
Look for any old processes which should no longer be running.
If you have any "old" processes they will normally have a different
entry in the "TT" column.  For example,

aces6{gparmer}1: ps
  PID TT STAT  TIME COMMAND
 4098 p2 S     0:00 -bin/csh (csh)
 4192 p2 S     0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/menu/main.menu
 4202 p2 D     0:00 /usr/5bin/echo [7m                
 4255 p4 S     0:00 -bin/csh (csh)

In this example, the old processes are associated with "p2" and the 
current login is associated with "p4".  Note that the old
processes have a process id (PID) which is older (smaller #) than
the current one.  (Note also that if you're actually sitting at
the SPARCstation there'll be lots more processes than this)

Now that the old processes have been identified as the ones with PIDs of
4098,4192, and 4202 they should be "killed."

aces6{gparmer}2: kill -9 4098
aces6{gparmer}3: kill -9 4192
aces6{gparmer}4: kill -9 4202

The "-9" is an option that forces the process to quit.  In some cases
killing one of the processes will cause the others to quit automatically.

Check again to be sure the processes ended..
aces6{gparmer}5: ps
  PID TT STAT  TIME COMMAND
 4255 p4 S     0:00 -bin/csh (csh)

Then logoff normally..
aces6{gparmer}5: exit
