We are running a public unix site using 386BSD. 
Ofcourse, our resources are limited, therefore we want
to kill all processes of a user when (s)he logs off.
This has to be totally independant of the user. 
(so no...  .logout is not a good spot :)
Some people/groups have to be excluded from this tho (root/wheel and so on :)
My question is..what would be the best place to code something like this?
I dont think we'd have any problem coding it, just..we arent that confident
with 386BSD to know what would be the best spot to put this.
Any help/info is greatly appreciated.
