Hello all, I have run into a peculiar problem. A process in one of my servers has stopped working, but when I kill -9 the pid the process won't go away. ps axuw | grep nagios nagios 36818 0.0 0.1 3964 2184 ?? TLs 30Mar05 46:14.69 /usr/local/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/etc/nagios/nagios.cfg and kill -9 36818 Well, it won't die no matter how many times I'll try to kill -9 it. My uname is 5.3-SECURITY FreeBSD 5.3-SECURITY #0: Sun Jan 16 09:53:48 UTC 2005 root@builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SMP i386 Does anyone have any constructive suggestion on how to get rid of it? Thanks in advance Athanasios
