The best way is:
killall -g -INT LinFAHR9.exe
I have written an init.d script that seems to work pretty well.
It is attached.
This script is for semi-experts only. It will automatically start
Folding@home when you boot your computer, and stop it cleanly when you
shut down. You will have to edit it and install it correctly.
(Maybe some other semi-expert would like to write a newbie-friendly
guide to installing folding@home with this script?)
