asterisk users - May 2005 - mpg123 zombie processes ...

Hi All,

I had noticed that MOH's mpg123 processes are not killed when asterisk
is killed.
Eventually after many restarts I see many of these zombie processes
eating up CPU.
Any Idea how could I make asterisk to clean up these properly.

Thanks,
~Vamsi

yeah, have cron running every night that issues this command:
killall -9 mpg123

Do yourself a favor and switch to "Madplay" instead of
"mgp123".
