[rajesh@ho rajesh]$ ps -e |grep fetchmail 3799 ? 00:00:00 fetchmail It should show tty no. isn't it ? It should be like below. Why it is coming as '?'. The above fetchmail is started when a remote user dials in and checks his mail. How it is starting fetchmail is a puzzle to me. It should not start fetchmail isn't it ? [rajesh@ho rajesh]$ ps -e |grep pppd 3571 ttyS1 00:00:00 pppd Can anybody find some reason why this is happening ?
