Steve and others,

        nv6000_smit KILLEUIS stops user sessions by just
killing the ovw processes.  I have been under the impression
that, for read-write maps at least, this is not a completely clean
way of stopping EUIs.

        I've been further under the impression (although I don't
have much to go on here) that a cleaner way of shutting down
is to forceably log off netview users through the security
GUI.  (With security enabled, obviously.)  Can anyone at IBM/Tivoli
comment on these superstitions?
