You could still write your own script reading all the links /proc/{proc_ids}/fd. Actually I thought lsof would do the same.

Being in a theoretical chemistry group and due to long term calculations we often also can't simply reboot a system. In the past 2 years a reboot of linux clients was usually only required when our failover server didn't taker over properly (actually it didn't mount properly and then exported the wrong directory, for the clients with their / from this server this caused some problems, especially since we also enforce the fsid) Cheers, Bernd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
