I'm not sure you understand what a defunct process is. You should read-up on it. When a process is defunct, it has exited successfully, and is waiting for its parent process to collect its return code. If 'ps' is listing the processes as defunct, you need to look into why their parent process isn't reaping them. -trog _______________________________________________ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users
