Help with use of pgrep or pkill commands with full name options.
I trying to use pgrep or pkill utility commands to find processes but using
the full path names, by example, find /usr/bin/bash (package procps-ng):
Then, if I use pgrep -f /usr/bin/bash, don't find nothing.
Using pkill -f /usr/bin/bash don't get the task.
If I use pidof /usr/bin/bash, this works.
How do I get it to do use pgrep, pkill, etc?
Seems to use the name without the full path, e.g.,
bash as opposed to /bin/bash, etc. Not sure why ...
