How to terminate processes in NetWare 5
1. User "A"'s computer crashes, forcing a reboot without proper logoff.
2. When "A" logs back on after a reboot, he cannot access his files because his previous connection (now a ghost) is still there with files still open.
3. The admin then goes to the server console's Monitor, sees "A"'s ghost connection, and tries to remove it.
4. The Monitor stops responding.
5. The admin then Alt-Esc his way to the Console screen and tries to down or restart the server.
6. The server complains that files are still open and asked admin to confirm shutdown.
7. Admin hit's "y", and the server goes dead while trying to dismount volumes.
8. Seeing there's no other way, the admin reaches for the 'reset' button...
So is there a better way to resolve this issue, like killing/restarting a dead process (in this case the Monitor) or something?
Please help.
