I frequently log into my FBSD 4.0 machine via SSH2 and whenever the connection is broken, the wtmp file still shows that I'm logged on to the terminal even though the who and users commands show that I'm not still logged on. Is there any way, short of rebooting, I can force this file to rescan or update the wtmp file with the correct login information? Or is there any way of "killing" or refreshing a terminal session when it thinks the user is still logged on and having it update the wtmp file so that it no longer shows "still logged in"?
