Does Ctrl-Z suspend the process? If so, you can then use the progression: "kill -INT procnum; kill -QUIT procnum; kill -KILL procnum". Never do a "kill -KILL" until you've tried other ways of stopping it. I wouldn't even put it on the same command line like I showed above, as it may take some time for mysql(1) to clean up and shut down properly, and signals are asynchronous. ---------------- "Fire" does not matter, "earth" and "air" and "water" do not matter. "I" do not matter. No word matters. But man forgets reality and remembers words. The more words he remembers, the cleverer do his fellows esteem him. He looks upon the great transformations of the world, but he does not see them as they were seen when man looked upon reality for the first time. Their names come to his lips and he smiles as he tastes them, thinking he knows them in the naming. -- Siddartha :::: Jan Steinman, EcoReality Co-op :::: -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
