Hi-
  We've got a situation where periodically some processes will go rogue on a 
Linux machine, probably after they lose their controlling terminal (i.e. 
someone logs off without quitting the program). We started to hack up something 
that attempts to kill these processes under the "right" circumstances (person 
is logged off the console, is not logged in remotely, isn't running it in a 
screen session, it is taking up a major part of the CPU, etc.) but it occurs to 
me that someone must have written this already. It seems like the sort of thing 
that shared hosting providers must need to having running all the time.

Does anyone have a tool they like that they can recommend for this purpose? 
Thanks!
