STIME of a process jumps back and forward: Look at this output: # ps -afe |grep spamd root 28063 1 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --max-children 30 --username=spamd -i -A 195.251.123.232 -x -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid spamd 28080 28063 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 spamd child spamd 28081 28063 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 spamd child root 28206 27204 0 21:56 pts/1 00:00:00 grep spamd # ps -afe |grep spamd root 28063 1 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --max-children 30 --username=spamd -i -A 195.251.123.232 -x -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid spamd 28080 28063 0 21:56 ? 00:00:00 spamd child spamd 28081 28063 0 21:56 ? 00:00:00 spamd child root 28215 27204 0 21:56 pts/1 00:00:00 grep spamd # ps -afe |grep spamd root 28063 1 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --max-children 30 --username=spamd -i -A 195.251.123.232 -x -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid spamd 28080 28063 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 spamd child spamd 28081 28063 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 spamd child root 28224 27204 0 21:56 pts/1 00:00:00 grep spamd hydra# ps -afe |grep spamd root 28063 1 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --max-children 30 --username=spamd -i -A 195.251.123.232 -x -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid spamd 28080 28063 0 21:56 ? 00:00:00 spamd child spamd 28081 28063 0 21:56 ? 00:00:00 spamd child root 28445 27204 0 21:59 pts/1 00:00:00 grep spamd hydra# ps -afe |grep spamd root 28063 1 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --max-children 30 --username=spamd -i -A 195.251.123.232 -x -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid spamd 28080 28063 0 21:56 ? 00:00:00 spamd child spamd 28081 28063 0 21:56 ? 00:00:00 spamd child root 28447 27204 0 21:59 pts/1 00:00:00 grep spamd hydra# ps -afe |grep spamd root 28063 1 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --max-children 30 --username=spamd -i -A 195.251.123.232 -x -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid spamd 28080 28063 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 spamd child spamd 28081 28063 0 21:55 ? 00:00:00 spamd child root 28449 27204 0 21:59 pts/1 00:00:00 grep spamd As you can see from the 'grep' pid, all of them are one after another. Watch the STIME of spamd processes. Some times it says 21:55 and others 21:56. Other processes don't do this.
