> Does anyone know anyway to avoid this issue Don't use "kill -9" ! Use "kill -TERM" instead. kill -9 is a mechanism of last resport, and should *NOT* be used as a matter of course. Any lazy administrator who habitually forces programs to quit abnormally deserves everything they get! (I'm a little more worried about Ctrl+C - that ought to shut down cleanly, and hence save the password change) Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
