Re: Preforked children not killed when parent is killed

kill sends TERM by default, not INT (at least on my system). What happens when you issue kill -INTpid?

Yes, you are right. If I add `$SIG{TERM} = \&HUNTSMAN;` Or `kill -INT pid_of_parent` the children get killed. Thanks guys for the clarification!	[reply] [d/l] [select]
