I only got on reply

Not sure exactly what you're describing. If it's that after you
logout, there are phantom tty's listed by the 'w' command, then this
problem can be ignored, and the last I heard, there was no fix for
this.

Hi Mike,

Yes, I mean "phantom tty's"

After waiting for about a week, Sun get back to me with an answer.
There is a fix for my problem with Patch-ID# 100943-02

After installing the patch, there are no more "phantom tty's" after users
log out.

Thanks, Aline...
