[comp.sys.next] Processes not terminated from remote terminal

sfrank@orion.oac.uci.edu (Steven Frank) (03/12/90)

I have two PC's attached to my cube through the two serial ports, and in
/etc/ttys I have entered the lines:

ttya	"/usr/etc/getty std.9600"	vt100	on secure
ttyb	"/usr/etc/getty std.9600"	vt100	on secure


When the user on the B port runs an executable, the process
remains indefinitely in the process table as reported by ps.  
This may also happen with the A port, although I haven't checked.  

Is there any simple way to fix this bug?
