Script to Send Email to a user when an admin kills process
Can anyone create or give me a script that I can use to email a user automatically when I kill one of their processes?
Or
Can you give me a script to allow me to email a user (entering email manually) when a process is killed? Like showing what the PID was and a reason the admin killed it? Is this possible?
