do `who -u` to get a list of the current logins. `who -uH` if you want colnumn headers.
Then use the kill command followed by the Process ID (PID) ex. `kill 1234` If that doesn't kill it (because its hung or thinking really really hard) you can do `kill -9 1234` where 1234 is the PID and it will kill it imidiatly...
let me know if you have any questions
