killsm(1M)killsm(1M)NAMEkillsm - kill the sendmail daemon
SYNOPSISDESCRIPTION
reads the pid file to get the pid number of the currently running dae‐
mon, and then kills that daemon. The pid file is specified using the
option in the file. If this option is not set, uses file as the default
pid file.
If the daemon is not killed instantaneously, will not exit until the
daemon is terminated or after a time interval of 10 seconds.
The command does the same thing as HP recommends that system adminis‐
trators use and to start and stop these startup scripts are used when
the system is booting to start Advanced system administrators can put
into their search path and just reference to start and to stop it.
