how process in background can kill itself after logout (BSD unix).

[Tom Christiansen]

>From the keyboard of mrapple at quack.sac.ca.us (Nick Sayer):
:In the meantime, leaving processes running after logout on modem
:ports causes very confused gettys to be spawned. You can work
:around this by "kill -9"ing these bad gettys. Here's a script
:to do that. You'll need the latest version of sps for this
:to work right. 

sps doesn't compile on my machine.  i'll bet others have the
same situation.
