Thread: kill connection

If possible in pgadmin kill a connection to user ?
Idea is:
create function kill (plperl,pltcl) in postgresql.
The parameter of function is pid process, execute command kill -9 pid
The problem is a permision process.

Tanks
Bye !!

This should be possible using an untrusted pl, however doing a kill -9 on a
backend is probably a very bad idea.

Besides that, as we can't rely on any pl language existing, this will
definitely not be a new feature.
