We are running UV 10.0.8 on Solaris 8.

My eunuchs admin asked me why the startup script (/etc/rc2.d/S99uv.rc), which 
runs as root, uses su commands.

For example, here is part of the start:

# Find running RPC daemons                
rlist=`/bin/su root -c "/bin/ps $PSARGS"|grep....

My guess, based more on ignorance than anything else, is that it's an attempt 
to make the script as portable from platform to platform as possible...  But 
that was something I more or less just mumbled to hide the sound of my brain 
cramping.

Any thoughts on this?
