Help | Stop Perl proccess in linux

Hello all !

1 hour ago I installed some Perl process on my Linux server and I don't know how to shut it down ...
How to do that ?

thanks to helpers !

Use the ps command with the a modifier to get a list of your processes, and pipe it to grep:

Code:

---

ps a | grep perl

---

From this you should see something like:

Code:

---

6343 pts/0    Ss+    0:00 /usr/bin/perl
6410 pts/0    S+    0:00 grep perl

---

The first number is the process ID. Now you use the kill command to kill the process:

Code:

---

kill 6343

---

and the process should be killed. You have to be root to do this, unless you own the perl process.

thanks ! :D
