Are you trying to show that the smokeping process is running as UID 106, and ps is unable to map that UID to a username? Or some other reason the apache processes show a username and the smokeping process doesn't? _______________________________________________ smokeping-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/smokeping-users
