I *did* say you don't need to be a rocket scientist. :-) The "hard"
part (to the extent there is one) is to find a *specific* listener (I
generally have several per server) and/or parsing the PID out the the
output from "ps". Not really rocket science there, either. Just a
little 'grep' and 'awk'... If you *really* want to get clever, you can
probably also wrestle it out of the /proc filesystem if your OS has
one. (Well, okay *really* "clever" probably means dredging the
information straight out of /dev/kmem, but while this is possible, who
on earth would bother?)
What interests me more is whether anyone is aware of *any* negative
side-effects to stopping a listener with 'kill -9'. Personally, I can't
think of any. But that doesn't meant they don't exist... Maybe issues
involving MTS or TAF? (I use neither, so I wouldn't know.) Anybody?
Cheers, -- Mark
