But we're talking not about process, but about data structures which netstat reports to be active and connected with the above mentioned stream socket file: > netstat -f unix b65d6280 stream 17 0 0 0 0 0 /var/run/daemon.sock b65d7700 stream 17 0 0 0 0 0 /var/run/daemon.sock ..... I meant that these addresses behave like zombies, not processes. ---- Alexander Varshavchick, Metrocom Joint Stock Company Phone: (812)118-3322, 118-3115(fax) _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
