Try using pstree (specifically pstree -n -u ) to find out the call tree of the process in question. You can thenn determine how the daemons are started. (Probably you can also do "egrep -r (sschdled|ssserverd) /etc/init.d/*" to find the startup script.)
You should be able to kill the process with "killall -9 sschdled" Martin Visser Network Consultant - Compaq Global Services Compaq Computer Australia 3 Richardson Place North Ryde, Sydney NSW 2113 Australia Phone: +61-2-9022-1670 Mobile: +61-411-254-513 Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Nick Croft [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 9 April 2002 7:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SLUG] stopping StarOffice services Morning, I notice in gtop's memory view, that about 20% of my precious 128M is going to sschdled and ssserverd - processes owned by root, or perhaps more accurately Sun StarDivision, as neither I nor root can stop them. I only use StarOffice 3 or 4 times a year. It's a waste of memory the way it's working now. I'd like to be able to do something like /etc/init.d/someservice stop to these processes. Gtop's kill and the command line kill don't seem to work. Ultimate solution would be to uninstall StarOffice and reinstall on those occasions when I want it. I'd welcome your suggestions, Nick /* _\|/_ (o o) +----oOO-{_}-OOo------------------------------+ |Piano Technician - Theme & Variations, Sydney| +--------------------------------------------*/ -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
