Hi
I have seen a "weird" behaviour from bash both under Solaris and Linux, most
likely it is a feature but I can't seem to find the answer with google :-\
I have two scripts
test.sh:
#!/usr/bin/bash
echo "parent"
./child.sh
sleep 120
child.sh:
echo "child
sleep 120
If I run the two scripts like this the child script has the name of the parent
if I look in top or ptree. like this:
3963 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
3965 -bash
3978 /bin/bash ./test.sh
3982 /bin/bash ./test.sh
if I include the #!/usr/bin/bash in the child as well I get what I expect
3963 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
3965 -bash
4009 /bin/bash ./test.sh
4013 /usr/bin/bash ./child.sh
What I haven't been able to google, is why the child process in the first
example inherits the process "name" of the parent..
Does anyone have a good explanation, and possibly a link to some documentation
