I am trying to write a simple Korn shell script to execute a loading process. The process occasionally runs into connectivity issues, so I need to kill it if it runs too long.I have been trying the following code:#!/usr/bin/ksh . /home/dw/script/load.ksh &LOADPID=$!sleep 100kill $LOADPIDUnfortunately, the kill command does not kill the process - am I missing something?
Korn shell timeout/kill script
shell;process;ksh;kill
