A process for terminating a client server network connection that includes a first automatic termination of all programs executing on the client from code accessed from the server. The disconnection processing interrogates the client computer system to determine any open program files or libraries.

A process for terminating a client server network connection that includes a first automatic termination of all programs executing on the client from code accessed from the server. The disconnection processing interrogates the client computer system to determine any open program files or libraries. Network program files or libraries result in a user prompting to determine whether they should be automatically terminated. In an alternate embodiment, a profile may indicate whether automatic termination will take place without user notification. Once all network loaded programs have been terminated, the disconnection process proceeds normally to sever the network connection.

A method of terminating a network connection between a first computer system and a second computer system with controlled termination of programs running in said first computer system and loaded across a network, the method comprising the steps of: receiving a signal to terminate a network connection; testing said first computer system to determine all programs running on said first computer system; testing to determine which of said programs running on said first computer system have one or more programs or libraries open across the network; determining whether each of said determined programs should be automatically terminated by reading a parameter file on said first computer system and terminating said determined program if said parameter file indicates automatic termination is desired, otherwise, prompting a user on whether to terminate the program; and terminating said determined programs prior to terminating the network connection.
