They say that "if you want to do something do it by yourself" Smilie ... so I went to the book stoor in the weekend and I bought a book. I did some reading in the weekend and I made the program this morning in 10 minutes (see below). Piece of cake compared to .net Smilie

ps -eaf | grep “oracleTRLV (LOCAL=NO)” | while read line
do
nick_owner=$(echo ${line} | awk '{print $1}')
nick_pid=$(echo ${line} | awk '{print $2}')
nick_priority=$(echo ${line} | awk '{print $4}')
nick_time=$(echo ${line} | awk '{print $5}')
nick_time_taken_hrs=$(echo ${nick_time} | cut -d ":" -f1)
nick_time_taken_minutes=$(echo ${nick_time} | cut -d "-" -f2 | cut -d ":" -f2)
myhours=$(echo $(date "+%H"))
myminutes=$(echo $(date "+%M"))
if [ ${nick_priority} -eq 0 ]
then
if [ ${myhours} -eq ${nick_time_taken_hrs} ]
then
if [ $((${myminutes} - 15)) -gt ${nick_time_taken_minutes} ]
then
kill ${nick_pid}
fi
else
echo “deal with hours”
fi
fi
done
