Thanks for your reply.

>From "man ps":

If the command vector cannot be located (usually because it has not
been set, as is the case of system processes and/or kernel threads)
the command name is printed within square brackets.

I have this behaviour with mysqld, the bug reporter with clamd.
Running mysqld jailed, the process name is ok and not in brackets.

bye,
Andy
