And why do you think process 555 exists? Does the /proc/self/mem cause the same problem too? On Wed, 9 Jan 2002, Efraim Yawitz wrote: > What I've been doing is something like 'cat /proc/555/mem' with the > problems mentioned. > > On Tue, 8 Jan 2002, Behdad Esfahbod wrote: > > > > > Where do

Where do you look for them? there is useful information in /proc/self directory, "man proc" for what is there. On Tue, 8 Jan 2002, Efraim Yawitz wrote: > As far as I understand from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/proc.txt, the > 'mem' files in the directories under /proc are supposed to provide
