.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
\fBpgrep\fP looks through the currently running processes and lists the
|
||||
process IDs which matches the selection criteria to stdout. All
|
||||
the criteria have to match. For example,
|
||||
|
||||
pgrep -u root sshd
|
||||
.IP
|
||||
$ pgrep \-u root sshd
|
||||
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
will only list the processes called \fBsshd\fP AND owned by \fBroot\fP.
|
||||
On the other hand,
|
||||
|
||||
pgrep -u root,daemon
|
||||
.IP
|
||||
$ pgrep \-u root,daemon
|
||||
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
will list the processes owned by \fBroot\fP OR \fBdaemon\fP.

\fBpkill\fP will send the specified signal (by default \fBSIGTERM\fP)
