What if you don't have a BSD system?  Is there any way to connect 
to psuedo tty's once your network connection has been terminated?

Occasionally we get locked up when connecting over a tcp/ip telnet connection
and have to reboot our PC's when we connect again another session is
started and processes that got locked up won't die -- can we connect
to these and have them log out gracefully?
