it has to be $$ but then i think there is something wrong in the kill line thats not making the 2nd loop recycle the PID #'s. is there something else other than -9 that can be used be/c when i put in $$ it just says "killed" in the second loop and it doesn't even run.


i want the first loop to list out the PID # five times

then the second loop i want it to list out the PID # that was listed in the first loop (again 5 times) but kill them when it lists them out.
