Steven,
I think you must have done a 'ps -ef | grep nmb'. and you are seeing your
own grep command. Which is, of course, run by you.
chmod changes the permissions of files. chown changes ownership of
files.... I don't think there is a (userspace) command for changing the
ownership of a process (surely I'm wrong?).
There is a trick for not getting your grep in the output: ps -ef | grep
[n]mb
Finally, I've never used -ef on Linux, isn't that Sun or HP-UX? ps is one
of those apps that is fairly different between different unicies. I use 'ps
aux' (hyphen regrettably optional).

Pat,
I did a ps -ef on the nmb, and this is what I got in return:
steven 2509 2492 0 18:15 pts/0 00:00:00 grep nmb.
Now that show as me, should it show as ROOT? Do you know the command to
change it to
root if needed? I thought it was chmod, not sure.
Steven
