Dear managers,
I am desparately trying to figure out how to kill a process (the
complete path is given) with a shell script.
#!/bin/sh
a=`/usr/bin/ps -ef | /usr/bin/grep pop-before-smtp | grep -v grep`;
if test "$a" = "" ; then
echo "Does not run!";
else
echo "Trying to kill, but how?"
fi
I can determine whether the process runs. The above gives me
root 27721 1 0 Dec 06 ? 0:00
/usr/local/bin/pop-before-smtp
in the variable a. But how can I isolate the pid of the process so that
I have something to pass to kill?
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Andreas
