[Sunhelp] Problem on creating a script to kill processes.

[Walter Krumshyn]

You could do something like the following.  Create a file with the
following contents (with execute permissions) and run it with the
program you want to kill as an argument.  

E.g. KillProcess <process_name>


#!/bin/sh

# Kill all processes which have the argument as part of the process
name.
# Remove the process ID of the grep process and this program.

for i in `ps -ef | grep $1 | egrep -v "grep|$0" | awk '{print $2}'`
do
  echo Killing Process $i
  kill $i
done

Walter Krumshyn
