I've done stuff like looking at the ps output or > searching thru /proc, but I always felt a little insecure when doing so. . minimizes the number of running processes . when reading ps output, remove the kernel tasks from the list try e.g. ps ax | egrep -v '\]$' | sort -n . if it listens to a socket you can use netstat -tulp Regards, /Karl Hammar
