So far I have tried:
"logon xxx here" with the response 'logoff/force pending'
"msg xxx junk" with the response 'xxx not logged on'
I have waited now for about 18 hours (since yesterday afternoon when
the controller crashed)
"force xxx disc" with the response 'xxx already disconnected'
I am open to any other suggestions.
BTW: UNHANG is the exec I was looking for. Does anybody have a copy
available?

I don't know of an ESA version of that old EXEC (UNHANG?). At our site, we
haven't had a hung ID since ESA 1.1.1. When they *do* get hung,
we've freed them by either using LOGON userid HERE or
FORCE userid DISC to get them unstuck. Sounds like you're past that
point, though. The 1 or 2 times I've seen a LOGOFF PENDING for an
ESA id, CP has mangaed to untangle itself withing about 10 mins.
Of course your mileage may vary.
