The commands lsof(8) and fuser(1) can generally tell you what process is using a particular file. Once you know that, you can kill the offending process with extreme prejudice. (In my case, it's usually a bash shell; its current directory is set to the filesystem I want to dismount.) Hope this helps. --Dale -- Pessimist: The glass is half empty.
