KEEP THAT USER OUT!

Ever get into one of 
those pesky admin wars 
or need to keep the 
developers off of your 
system for a few minutes 
without taking the system 
to single user mode?  

This nasty little script 
will do the trick.

[root at foo /]# while true
> do
> kill -9 $(ps -aux |grep username | awk '{ print $2 }' )
> sleep 2
> done

This can make you the life 
of the party (At work)
