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).
