Seems like it should be simpler than this since PS can list out all processes and threads along with their parent's PID. You already know the parent's PID and then you can just run a ps -efww and grep for that. Then, a small awk and for loop should work. Something like this: for p in $(ps -efww | grep $PID | awl '{print $2}'); do kill -9 $p done Not sure if my assumptions are correct, but it seems like that would work. You could also format the output of PS to be very specific and just contain the PID and parent PID (at least I think you can do that). -bp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
