So in essence, what you're trying to do is store the output of a
command in a variable, right?
You might be interested in the os.popen family of functions.

Re: [Tutor] Help with daemon
Hi
I will make it with CRON. Thanks Max for the idea
Now I have another problem
How can I kill a process???
I know that if I run ps --user username it returns all the process started
by username even the PIDs and with kill -9 PID I destroy the process but I
don't know how to execute it from Python
I tried:
import os
os.system("ps --user root")
and I get
0
as a return
How can I get the PID and bind the command above with a variable?? I mean
varusername="root"
os.system("ps --user varusername")
works???
thanks in advanced
Alberto

I'm gonna give you an example:
The program will check for new users and to check record time every 10
seconds. But first the program will have to finish the checking process
that started before so it won't be 10 seconds right?
Unless I have one process for each user to check the database at the same
time is checking other users
This sounds like it'd be better done as a cron job (man cron for more
info).
