Kill by process name

[Fixles]

Hi,

Ive recently had some SCO Unix servers dumped under my administration )

We are having a probelm which our vendor is looking into where a process iSet is not killing itself when it has finished so i have been killing the processes manually using top and the pid.

I would ask the vendor but i dont want them to know I'm a newb to SCO ;o)

Is there anyway i can kill all processes named iSet? (None are child processes)

Many Thanks,

James

Something like this ?
kill `ps -e | awk '$NF=="iSet"{print $1}'`

Hope This Helps, PH.
