Ah.... Finally one I can answer: ...I'll referr you to the folks at Sun for more complete information, but this pointer should get you going in the right direction. I'm only familliar with catching the kill signal in Java because that's the only one I happen to care about. (The other signals are likely caught in a simmilar manner.) Here's how you declare a shutdown handler (catches kill -9): Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(Shutdown); Note that 'Shutdown' is the name of a method in my code - change as appropriate.
