Hi all,
I have been experimenting with ptrace to determine when a child
process forks or calls exec. Particularly, I have explored tracing

call is too great.

Hi all,
I am trying to port a debugging tool that uses the ptrace interface
from Linux to FreeBSD. From what I can tell, the ptrace interface on
FreeBSD is pretty similar to the Linux interface; however, it doesn't
appear that the FreeBSD interface generate events when the child
process forks, cal
