...and remember this tip:
ps -ef | grep [x]xxxx eliminates the need for the second grep when
looking for xxxxx.

We use a for loop
for pid in `ps -ef | grep xxxxx | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`
do
kill $pid
done
Hope this helps

For example, I have these process that I would like kill both by running one script that greps for 'adminex:/' for example. root 104368 90326 0 Nov 19 - 0:01 rcp -rp ./banner adminex:/ root 75010 73126 0 Nov 28 - 0:08 rcp -rp ./users adminex:/ Here is the core of script so far - kill 'ps -efo "%p %a" | grep $1 | cut -c 1-6' # !grepkill.shl adminex !grepkill.shl: ps -efo "%p %a" | grep $1 | cut -c 1-6: Specify a process identifier or a %job number. If I just run the script without the kill part, I get a list of all the PIDS 10000 10001 10002 which is good, but it fails on the kill part. I know it has to be something simple. What am I doing wrong? I am sure someone has a more elegant script(s).
