How to close the following processes?

[Nelapsi09]

sudo airmon-ng start wlan0


Found 5 processes that could cause trouble.
If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
a short period of time, you may want to kill (some of) them!

PID Name
670 NetworkManager
675 avahi-daemon
677 avahi-daemon
731 wpa_supplicant
1523 dhclient
Process with PID 1523 (dhclient) is running on interface wlan0

I use Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04.
Thank you.

Hi you have to delete the id number by opening file where process is run and then save file .
i.e you will look process file in as

[ved@localhost /]$ cd /var/run/
[ved@localhost run]$ ls
abrt                    gdm             pcscd.events   setroubleshoot
abrtd.pid               gdm.pid         pcscd.pid      sm-client.pid
acpid.pid               hald            pcscd.pub      sm-notify.pid
acpid.socket            haldaemon.pid   plymouth       sshd.pid
atd.pid                 httpd           pm-utils       sudo

Could you write precise sequence of commands for Ubuntu?

Is it the only way to close those processes?

[Bemk]

doesn't the kill command work under sudo with the pid??? (be very carefull with this though!)

[Nelapsi09]

OK. I'll try.
Is there any other way to close those processes?
Is there an analogues programme to NetworkManager?

Geez, I thought I've seen everything.

Generally, daemons and processes started from rc.d or init.d scripts should be shut down using

sudo /etc/init.d/foo stop

or similar.
DHCP client is probably started from your network config, revise that to get rid of it.
NetworkManager ... it is provided for convenience, it's not needed for a network connection to function.

I thought he considered that, since most of the times disabling deamons is also available through the GUI, unless you've messed up the scripts somehow (very easy to do when messing around with root).

Maybe you need those programs to make network secure..?
Maybe deleting those programs could open security exploit holes in the OS..?
Which security updates are those items connected to..? and why?..

[Nelapsi09]

When I type "sudo /etc/init.d/foo stop"
the processes seem to shut down, but if I try to use aireplay, those processes appear again with different PIDs.
How to close them permanently?

I also cannot install madwifi; maybe there is some compatibility problems with Atheros 5007EG.
