Thanks for the response.

I need to change program name as it seen by "ps" command.

In other words "ps ax | grep http" gives something like:

21718 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd -DHAVE_ACCESS -DHAVE_PROXY 
21719 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd -DHAVE_ACCESS -DHAVE_PROXY 
21720 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd -DHAVE_ACCESS -DHAVE_PROXY 
23140 pts/4    S      0:00 grep http

But I need this output to be:

21718 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd -DHAVE_ACCESS -DHAVE_PROXY
21719 ?        S      0:00 my custom title here
21720 ?        S      0:00 my another custom title here
23140 pts/4    S      0:00 grep http

And I need to change this from mod_perl.
