Anyone know of any magical IOS commands to kill -9 a process? :) Someone's managed to crash a couple of sessions on a router here while they're holding a lock on the nvram.

Ahh. You want the "reload" command. However you may find that the "reload" feature is unavailable in your current version of IOS as it is a restricted feature set. Please upgrade to 12.2(1)XD.

Turn on the customer enragement feature? That's quite good at terminating things :-) Seriously, if the lock is due to a crashed process and the garbage collection was not good enough to clean up the lock afterwards anyway, I doubt that an IOS kill -9 would magically be well behaved enough to give the lock back. Of course, if there is a hidden lock manager command, that would be more useful. -- Michael Newbery Technical Specialist TelstraSaturn Limited Tel: +64-4-939 5102 Mobile: +64-2-939 5102 Fax: +64-4-922 8401 --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
