I guy in my OS class ran something similar to that and logged out of the main CS server without killing it. A short time later, the whole lab wondered why they couldn't save their assignments . . .

Needless to say he had a lot of explaining to do with the IT staff. And that was the LAST time the OS classes used the main CS server!
