can't clear a "ghost" connection from system console

Occasionally a users workstation hangs and they reboot it without advising
me so I can clear them from the System Console first.

When they try to log back in, they are told that "they are already logged in
once and the supervisor has limited them to 1 login".  However, when I check
at the System Console, they are NOT logged in, so of course I cannot clear
them from the system.

Eventually I tell them to use another id/password temporarily as it takes
the network several hours to figure out they are not on before it allows
them to log back in using their proper ID.

What is happening?  How do I stop this?  etc.  Any help is much appreciated!
