HI I have a mail server that doesn't run under the root account and I thought it would be "nice" to set a nice level of -4 to it. Because it doen't use the root account, this user can't change it's priority level and I can only do that from outside the shell via a root account. It there a way to tell the system to run any process that belongs to a specific user to have a specific nice level? Or alternatively, is there a way to tell the system to have a specific nice level for a process name? BTW: Try to search the list's archives for "nice" or "priority"... -- Isaac Aaron Registered Linux User #127071
