Can anyone help me work out what this entry in the process list is:
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND [snip] 186 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/cron [snip] 16891 ? S 0:00 /USR/SBIN/CRON 16892 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh -c if [ -x /usr/sbin/exim -a -f /etc/exim/exim.conf ]; then /usr/sbin/exim -q ; fi 16893 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/exim -q 18318 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/exim -q 18319 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/exim -q 18320 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/procmail 18321 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/exim -q I'm fine with #186, but why have I got #16891 there? According to pstree, it's the parent of the subsequent exim and procmail processes, but there's nothing in my /etc/crontab to suggest that anything should be going on around now. Does this smell fishy to anyone, or am I getting needlessly worried? ta, jc
