I have an odd situation. I have a process that just won't die. I know I could reboot the box, but that is to easy. So the question I pose to the group is how do you kill something when kill -9 doesn't work? For those people who are going to ask, my RPM database has become funky and now I have an rpm process that will not close no matter what I have tried and I really hate resorting to the M$ fix.
