Hi, I want to create automatic killing process for an application. The idea is to get the pid of that process and then kill -9 that pid. How to get the pid of a specific program ( let's say /oraprog/finapp) and then kill that pid ? ( just pid for that process, --> manually ps -edf | grep finapp | ps -o pid -- always return 2 pid's).
