PROGRAM:

NAME


xkill - extended kill - kill processes or users, including Usenet posters.

SYNOPSIS


xkill [-signal] pid ...
xkill -l
xkill username[@host] ...
xkill -u [-qs] [-p] [newsgroup]

DESCRIPTION


xkill sends a signal to a process or a terminal. The first two forms send a signal to a
process. The functionality in this case is the same as kill(1).

When the command xkill is invoked with an username as argument, it attempts to locate the
specified user on the local host. If the user is logged on, the signal ECUTE
(electrocute, 666) is sent to the user's terminal. This will cause the keyboard to
electrocute the user. If the user is not logged on, the appropriate line of the file
/etc/passwd is marked. The first time the user logs on the ECUTE signal is sent to the
terminal he is using.

When the command xkill is invoked with a remote username, in the form user@host, a
connection with the remote host is attempted (see xkilld(8)), to send the ECUTE signal to
the user's terminal.

USENET KILL


The -u (Usenet) option is an extension of the concept of KILL file.

The program will attempt to locate a remote user by scanning the news spool area. When
the user is located, a connection is attempted with the appropriate host, and the ECUTE
(electrocute, 666) signal is sent to the appropriate user. The search only considers one
newsgroup. If none is specified, rec.humor is assumed by default. The program attempts
to locate people whose signature is too long, and who quote a whole article in order to
comment on a single line. The option -s can be used to consider only the size of
signatures, while the option -q can be used to consider only the size of the quotations.
The option -qs corresponds to the default.

When the -p (post) switch is used, the user is electrocuted next time he post news.
