Re^19: show a message only during the sleep time

I change the code to:

...................................................................
my $process = "ntop";

my $return = 'ps -eaf |grep $process |grep -v grep';

my $stop = '/usr/local/bin/sudo sh /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/ntop/ntop.sh
+ stop &';

if ($return ne "" ) {
    system ($stop) and die "...";
}

sleep(8);

my $start = system('/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/ntop/nt
+op.sh start') and die "...";
...................................................................

you mean to avoid zombie processes executed via perl using: opens, system and backticks. some perl functions collect their child processes automatically and they must wait to be push manually or to push other processes. I've corrected the code greetings cc	[reply]
