Hi all, When i shutdown my Linux box (Ctrl-Alt-Del) after a long time ( > 2hrs) i see that it is not able to kill a few process - smbd, nmbd, lpd, inetd The error mesg is something like - 'Shutting down smbd - PID 330 not found' This *does not* happen when i shutdown the system soon after startup, say 15-20 mins. All services which are not used for a long time seem to disappear somehow ( though they show up is 'ps ax') What could be the explanation for this ? I use RH 5.2 ciao, Amit ======================================= If Murphy's Law can go wrong, it will. ======================================= Amit Kucheria Systems Group L & T Information Technology Ltd.
