Hi Gordon and all folks,
Some time ago you gave me this answer (bellow) about the occurence of too
many defunct processes in my system.
I've been testing what you suggested, issue a kill -CONT at the PPID and it
is working fine: the PPID exits and the defunct process is finally banished
May not help. The common cause of a stopped process is a nondaemonised
process in the background of an interactive job control shell. Such jobs
are often set up by the shell to stop (via SIGTSTP) if they produce output
to avoid cluttering things, or if they try to read from the terminal.

Restart crond:
/etc/init.d/crond restart
If that doesn't work, schedule a time to reboot. Be at the console when
you do so.

processes - all them continue to have their original parents
who, in turn, are children of the CRON process.
Thank for any help,

Hi all,
I have a RedHat 6.2 and it isn't working fine. Look at how many defunct
processes are hanging around:
