On Linux I always use 'ps fax' On SunOS I always us 'ps -ef' This should give you a list of all processes running. If the list is to big, just pipe it to grep: ps fax | grep nmbd and ps fax | grep smbd. If you're alsoe using winbindd, don't forget to grep for that as well. There's a similar thread going on in the list called "stability". If you need decent scripts. it might help poking around in the "stability" thread. This is a script kindly taken from Joel Hammer ;)
