NTech 0 Posted April 27, 2000 Is there a way to kill a process from the command line? Banyan Vines (yes, it still exists)starts two processes at login. The launch is done through the EXE as far as I can tell. The user needs to be able to log in, then the process needs to be stopped at startup. All of this needs to happen without the users' input, without installing software (copying files is OK), and without giving the user the option to intercede. All ideas welcome.....

clutch 1 Posted April 27, 2000 Well, this isn't elegant but it may work. With the NT Server Resource Kit, you get a "kill" command line utility. All you have to do is type; kill <pid> -f The "f" switch forces the shutdown w/o user input. I haven't seen anything refuse to stop yet when using "kill -f". ------------------ Regards, clutch Share this post Link to post
clutch 1 Posted April 27, 2000 Oh, and it could probably be done with a batch file to launch it... ------------------ Regards, clutch Share this post Link to post
