BOSSKILL(8)          Maintenance Procedures           BOSSKILL(8)

NAME
     bosskill - send a signal to your  boss,  or  terminate  your
     boss

SYNOPSIS
     bosskill [ -signal ] <bossname>

DESCRIPTION
     bosskill sends the TERM (terminate, 15) signal to  the  boss
     with the specified bossname. If a signal name or number pre-
     ceded by `-' is given as the first argument, that signal  is
     sent  instead  of  terminate. The killed boss must be in the
     system administrator's supervisory chain.

     The following is a list of all signals with names as in  the
     include file <signal.h>:

     SIGHUP    1    hangup. Forces bossname  to  re-read  his/her
                    job  description  and  figure out that he/she
                    knows squat about sysadmin work or  life,  in
                    general.

     SIGINT    2    interrupt. Prevents the bossname from  inter-
                    rupting the sysadmin for one hour.

     SIGQUIT   3    quit. Causes the boss  to  quit  his/her  job
                    with no explanation.

     SIGILL    4    illegal instruction. Makes the  boss  believe
                    the last instruction he/she gave was illegal,
                    so he/she withdraws it.

     SIGTRAP   5    trace trap. Display the exact location of the
                    boss.

     SIGABRT   6    abort. Makes the boss go home and  try  again
                    tomorrow.

     SIGKILL   9    kill. Game over.

     SIGBUS    10   bus error. Boss's transportation fails on the
                    way to work.

     SIGSEGV   11   segmentation violation. Boss realizes  he/she
                    is trying to do something for which he/she is
                    not quailified and stops.

     SIGSYS    12   bad argument. Boss loses.

     SIGPIPE   13   smoke pipe. Boss  samples  some  green  leafy
                    substance and mellows out.

     SIGALRM   14   alarm. Boss is startled and falls over.  Best
                    used  when  boss  is  walking next to his/her
                    boss.

     SIGTERM   15   termination signal. Boss is fired.

BUGS
     Sending a SIGABRT to a boss that is already home will  cause
     him/her to walk aimlessly in circles for two hours.
