Processes don't die when kill command is used/need reboot
Does anyone have any useful explanations as to why a process does not die when a kill command is issued ? As I understand it, it is because the process is waiting on a system call than will never complete. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has had any similar problems and any...- PaulFearn
