sendmail is known for changing its ps line. There is a python module that demonstrates various methods: https://github.com/dvarrazzo/py-setproctitle/blob/master/src/spt_status.c Ways to do it include setproctitle(), pstat(), modifying argv, writing to /dev/kmem (!), calling exec(), etc. I have no idea if it is possible on Windows, or even if the parameters are visible on Windows. -- Philip Martin | Subversion Committer WANdisco // *Non-Stop Data*
