    The following command will tell you if there is a "pilot" process still 
    running and possibly interfering with the ability to relaunch JPilot:
    ps -ef | grep pilot
    
    If there is, you'll want to kill it and then try to relaunch JPilot.

    I'd be interested in hearing your results after making sure all pilot 
    processes are killed and relaunching JPilot.
