Hai friends,

        when i press "ps -x" 
i can get the process list 

PID   TTY       STAT       TIME  COMMAND
1234  ?          Z          0:04 [defunct a.out]


iam trying to kill this process by typing "kill -9 1234"

but the process is not getting killed.

what does STAT flag indicate ?
am i right by guessing Z as a Zombie.

thanks
vamsi

Flower-strewn pathways

All our life through;

God has not promised

Sun without rain,

Joy without sorrow,

Peace without pain
