Stop a server using SSH?

[SM411]

Is it possible to stop a server using SSH? What is the command?

[fqdn]

in the server console, ctrl + c will kill it, or if you know the pid (you can get this via ps aux) just do "kill thetasknumber"

[Enemy1]

log in on the server and type this

ps awwux | grep src

finish with <ENTER>

the line between awwux and grep is the key with <> and AltGr + that key gives |

Good luck !

Wrote a script. Using it for ages now. This is how it works:

- Connect to the server with SSH (using a prog like Putty)
- Type: vi <scripname you want>.scr
- Paste source below and fill in IP of your server. Check the gamepath! Save this script.
- You can use it:

./<scriptname>.scr start
Server starts and checks for updates

./<scriptname>.scr stop
Server stops

./<scriptname>.scr fast
Server starts without het updatecheck

./<scriptname>.scr status
Gives status of server (running/ not running)

This is the script:

#!/bin/sh

Good luck!
