I have another wierd question. After having done a make world, when I
run "w", "ps", etc... all processes shown are in parentheses. Why is this?
Example:
% ps
PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
425 p1 Ss 0:00.00 (tcsh)
556 p1 R+ 0:00.00 (ps)
% ps aux
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND
sysadmin 586 0.0 0.2 412 240 p1 R+ - 0:00.00 (ps)
root 1 0.0 0.2 496 244 ?? Is - 0:00.00 (init)
root 2 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?? DL - 0:00.00 (pagedaemon)
root 3 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?? DL - 0:00.00 (vmdaemon)
Etc... The only ones that don't are sendmail and nfsd.
