As this is a question about Sugar, perhaps the Sugar developers should be involved.
+CC sugar-devel@ Problem description: 32 XO-1 laptops are booted and registered to a school server, and all 32 icons are visible in neighbourhood, but the icons persist after any XO leaves. Sugar-0.96 (yes, really), on OLPC OS 12.1.0. Sorry, I don't know how the XO is being asked to leave; forced power off, shutdown request using power button, or shutdown using Sugar menu. This would be something to investigate. My experience is that a shutdown request using power button is similar in effect to typing "shutdown -h now" via sshd, and this leaves the SSH client stranded without the connection clearing down. Perhaps all that is required is time for the ejabberd connection to time out? Perhaps this is fixed in a later release of Sugar, and an upgrade or field change can be recommended?
