Dear All,

I found the following interesting script to kill processes on the net. I wonder if this can be modified to ignore specific users even when their idle time is greater than 45?

#!/bin/ksh
who -u > /idleuser/aaa
#cutting the position of the hour
cut -c 39-49 /idleuser/aaa > /tayyab/bbb
grep ":" /idleuser/bbb > /idleuser/ccc
IFS='[: ]'
while read a b pid;
do
if [ $a+0 -gt 0 ] || [ $b+0 -gt 45 ]; then
kill -9 $pid
fi
done < ccc

I am just learning and I have no expertise in script programming and at the same time I am mindful not to corrupt the system.

Thanking you in advance.
