I think i posted this when the list was having problems, so here goes. As i said for the subject, there is a process called sh that takes all of my idle processes away from rc5/des. It starts on its own, and the pid changes by one every othere second. I can succeed in killing the current pid, but a second later it pops up as the next pid. has anyone had this problem, or what can I do to find out what is going on? -- Aaron Seelye <A HREF="http://revolution.3-cities.com/~roberto"><A HREF="http://revolution.3-cities.com/~roberto</A">http://revolution.3-cities.com/~roberto</A</A>> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
It sounds like something is running as a daemon and starting a Borne shell every second. Perhaps a look at 'cron' or 'at' would help. It would be better for you to man them than to have me try to remember how to use these. I hope this doesn't sound stupid. I've only been a real Unix sysadmin for a year, and that is not my primary focus. Steve -- [<A HREF="http://counter.li.org"><A HREF="http://counter.li.org</A">http://counter.li.org</A</A>>] S.u.S.E.
