[Asterisk-Users] STOP NOW not responding

[Matt Klein]

Try ps -auxww, find the process and kill it. Or, if you're on 
a system that supports killall, just killall asterisk.

safe_asterisk should restart the * process automatically, or if you're not 
running safe_asterisk, then just start the process after you've killed 
it.. I have no idea why STOP NOW doesn't work every time, but I 
experienced the problem with a 2004 CVS-HEAD update.
