Hi, In unix, only root can kill all processes and the other users can only kill their own. I suggest you should go for a tool called sudo and configure it so that the www (or apache or whatever) can only run this script. Than you need to call from inside your cgi code. I hope this helps. --------------------------- Dr. Mark Ceulemans Senior Consultant IT Masters, Belgium
