It has a bug: sometimes it says "No matching processes belonging to you were found" when user tries to kill any root-owned SUID-binary started by this user. However, kill(1) still works. >How-To-Repeat: I discovered this bug while connecting to ISP using pppd using command like 'pppd call isp' and then tried to disconnect using 'killall pppd'. killall refused to work. This is 100% repeatable. However, kill did a job. >Fix: Unknown for me >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
