When I worked with 4.3BSD many years ago, there was the same situation. There was no way of eliminating a process in an uninteruptable sleep. It might have changed in later BSDs, but it not only a Linux thing. Unix has been like that for ages. It might be that Unix is flawed, but moving to BSD is certainly not a cure for that :-) -- René Seindal ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://sights.seindal.dk/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
