Hi, The README file in /sys/fs/procfs directory says that we can send the control messages to note or ctl files for any process . But when we execute the command echo hup > /proc/curproc/note OR echo attach > /proc/2/ctl the following error message comes on the terminal . $ echo hup > /proc/curproc/note /proc/curproc/note: Operation not supported and $ echo attach > /proc/2/ctl /proc/2/ctl: Operation not supported What is the reason for this ? Is it not possible to write the control words or control messages to the process entries under /proc ? Please reply to this mail . Regards, N Ravi
