But it does have this nifty pgrep command. You could do something like this: nstraz at hot ~% pgrep in.rlogind | xargs ps -fp UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 533 196 0 15:54:58 ? 0:00 in.rlogind Linux also has this command. This will make process management scripts much easier. :) Nate _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
