I have a few RH7 boxes setup now and I'm noticing the same exact problem across all of them. I made sure I had all the updates and patches in place, including this particular program (sysstat). Whenever I do a 'ps' command (be it 'aux', or anything else), I see the following: 3862 ? S 0:00 awk -v progname=/etc/cron.hourly/sysstat progname {????? print progname ":\n"????? progname="";???? 3863 ? S 0:00 sh /usr/lib/sa/sa1 600 6 3865 ? S 0:00 /usr/lib/sa/sadc 600 6 /var/log/sa/sa13 Why is there a stale 'awk 'command? The sysstat is still collecting data, but that 'awk' doesn't go away. If I stick 'sa1' in a crontab file (through crontab -e), and remove it from /etc/cron.hourly, it runs fine with no problem. -- H | Hi, I'm currently out of my mind. Please leave a message.
