You can do a couple of things to clear them though. The easy way (the way I do it ;)) is just to log in to your box a bunch of times, until you replace all of the entries in 'who' with yourself, and then log 'em out properly. It's lame, but it works. ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
