Well, I recently learned there's some effort put in the linux kernel to help with that sort of thing. See: Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt (at the bottom) in a kernel source tree (I'm looking at 3.13) ,---- | Configuring procfs | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | 4.1 Mount options | --------------------- | | The following mount options are supported: | | hidepid= Set /proc/<pid>/ access mode. | gid= Set the group authorized to learn processes information. `---- > Hope that helps.
