I mean, you could just grab ps from another FreeBSD box, upload it and use that instead? The best you could probably do is edit the ps program source, so users won't notice you have a script for it... even tho this can all be avoided, of course. --Rink > On Tuesday 28 November 2000 20:44, Kris Doyle wrote: > > Is their any way to make it so ps -awx as a normal > > user only shows their processes ie ps -wux or > > something close to that.
