Here are few alternatives to get the list of the current session:
The command
who
- display who is on the system:
$ who
spas pts/1 2017-11-05 21:43 (tmux(1597).%0)
spas pts/14 2017-11-09 13:02 (192.168.100.110)
guest tty2 2017-11-09 16:15 (:1)
The command
w
- displays information about the users currently on the machine:
$ w
16:16:12 up 3 days, 18:33, 9 users, load average: 4,33, 2,79, 2,44
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
spas pts/1 tmux(1597).%0 нд21 3days 3days 3days tmux new-session -d -s my-tmux-session
spas pts/14 192.168.100.110 13:02 1.00s 0.29s 0.01s sshd: spas [priv]
guest tty2 :1 16:15 3days 1.27s 0.17s /sbin/upstart --user
The command
last
lastb
- show a (history) listing of last logged in users. It provides few analytical options as--until
,--since
, etc.
The command
users
- print the usernames of users currently logged-in to the current host. It has really limited usage:
$ users
guest spas spas
To kill a specific session you could use who -u
(or who -a
) to print the process numbers and then sudo kill -9 <session-process-number>
:
$ who -u
spas pts/1 2017-11-05 21:43 old 1597 (tmux(1597).%0)
spas pts/14 2017-11-09 13:02 . 31822 (192.168.100.110)
guest tty2 2017-11-09 16:15 old 2225 (:1)
$ sudo kill -9 2225 # this command will kill the third session from the above list
Additionally you could kill all processes of a specific user (reference):
sudo pkill -9 -u <username>
