Ok, Ok, I have a problem. I am running a server that forks left and right, once it is running, there are often 40+ processes running. 'ps ax | grep <path>' will display on the processes in question, now I would like to extend this command line to be able to kill all the processes with on command. I know how to do basic things in bash, but I don't know how to take the output from the 'ps ax | grep %1' and get only the first string of the second line, which is the PID. I plan to do a 'ps ax | grep %1' before each kill because sometimes when you kill PID 4, it will terminate PID 5 through 9. Can someone assist me in getting this script written?

If you know the name of the program why don't you do a `killall <program>'? Ciao, Stefan -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Well, first off I didn't know there was a 'killall' :) Second of all, out of the 40+ processes, there are at least ten different names. Along with forking, it also starts other processes in the same folder Sam -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
