Question about ps

2000-05-19 Thread Gordon Charrick
Does anyone know why ps sometimes shows a process name in brackets and sometimes doesn't? Specifically, I start up portsentry twice, once for tcp and once for udp. After a while, instead of ps showing the command I used to start it, it will display as "[portsentry]" and I can't figure out why. -
