The main process need to kill one its child process. The child process is playing a music using : system("cat phrase3.wav > /dev/dsp "); The main process code is (pidChild is correst) : kill(SIGKILL, pidChild); I tried with SIGUSR2 (with a function associated to the SIGUSR2 signal) : same result. The opposite is working (child process sending a SIGURS1 to its father - the father receive the signal and call the matching function). Does cygwin has a problem to recieve a signal when a problem a process is busy (command system) ? Chris (french guy) Yahoo! Mail : votre e-mail personnel et gratuit qui vous suit partout !
