How to kill a runaway perl script

HI,

Is there any way to kill a runaway perl srcipt on netware?

If I try to unload perl I get a Command LIne Interface cannot be unloaded 
at this time error.

thats most likely because your script has loaded addditional NLMs; if you 
first unload these it might work;
I've had often luck with this:
# unlperl.ncf
unload socket
unload pmysql
unload dbi
unload base64
unload fcntl
unload io
unload cwd
unload glob
unload posix
unload perl

Brian,

I put Perl scripts that doesn't need to share OS address space ressources
into their own address space using:

 load address space=<myspace> perl <myscript.pl>

To (brutally) kill it, unload the address space:

 unload address space=<myspace>
