Normally when a new PID is needed the OS just takes the PID of the last process that got started and adds 1. (Eventually it will wrap around and start reusing the unused low numbered PIDs but that will take quite some time. I can't think of any reason why your server wouldn't be able to handle it. Everybody else's can. :-) > > > > nobody 23332 0.0 1.3 3724 840 ? S May12 0:00 > /usr/local/apache > nobody 23333 0.0 2.2 3724 1396 ?
