Richie19Rich77 Richie19Rich77 Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2002-08-16 Posts: 624 Loc: London, England	Hi All Our Clustered File & Print servers keep on crashing, without any messages in the EventLog, we think it is due to a process called "MailTool.exe" which keeps on generating every 2 seconds. After about an hour, we have over 100 "MailTool.exe" processes running. I have no problems on killing the process, but how can i list current processes by name ????. Once I have this I can then write a program that checks for this process, and kills it straight away. Thanks

Is this a DELL server? http://support.ap.dell.com/docs/stor-sys/dom/9867c/RUNNING.HTM _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

I am doing this quick just for the weekend, in case our servers die. Best bet would be to kill "MailTool.exe" -F every 2 minutes, if it is there then it will be killed, and if not, well it don't matter. Rich

A quick glance into it would reveal e.g. EnumProcess() - enum specific process PIDs and/or terminate them _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.
