Hello, I run a bash script in a multi-user environment. This script uses "ps -ef" in particular to list all its instances.
On a common UNIX / Linux system, it gives something like this : bobby 20326 20318 0 10:21 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash ./myscript.sh marty 20330 20342 0 10:23 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash ./myscript.sh dudul 20339 20363 0 10:25 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash ./myscript.sh Perfect ! With Cygwin, "ps -ef" does not give command line arguments, so the script can't list its instances. I was thinking about using procps or printing /proc/*/cmdline. However, some of the users do not have admin rights, so they are not allowed to access /proc/<pid>/cmdline, /proc/<pid>/stat etc... of other users... This is why "ps -ef" giving command line arguments would be really perfect ! But perhaps there is another solution ? Could you help me ? Thank you very much, Best regards, Ben -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
