If your TCP connections disappear suddenly, I would suggest logging
into your Linux systems as an appropriately privileged user (the
UID that began your Pick session or the superuser) and send the shell
or Pick a hangup signal. Also, that DCD stuff in Pick may be
necessary. Of course, this is a manual process and doesn't help you
much if it needs to be automated.
Also, if your Pick users are individuals (each has a separate
login...e.g., not a shared login), in their login script (.profile,
.login, or whatever is appropriate for the "shell" they run), you
could search out any Pick or user shell process owned by that user,
and "hang up" on it (parse the output of ps with perl or awk). Or,
you might allow each user up to "n" number of Pick processes, count
them in the ps listing, and kill off excess instances of the program.
Hint: sort the ps output by UID with "ps auxOU" (the "OU" part).
