(alias wpid='ps aux | grep') When I ran kill -9 x, it seemed to disable the entire machine. I couldn't log on remotely anymore, and nothing else responded. Should there be something still running when x is killed ungracefully, or is that just inviting a crash? I tried running ps aux | grep appname, but it gives me an error. Does linux treat alises as (some alias) appname? -- Thank you, rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
