To whom it may concern, I have a machine that runs the smbd server daemon on an HP-UX 9.07 for users that interact through Ntrigue. Unless the users exit out of their session correctly or if their Ntrigue session times out, the smbd processes will continue to run unless manually killed or the machine is rebooted. Is there any way that we can clean out these unused smbd processes other than manually killing them. ... __o .... _-\<, ....
