ps output

[jb]

Hi,

It's fb9-release.

Why the other ps entries do not display cron ?

$ top
...
  PID USERNAME    THR PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE   C   TIME   WCPU COMMAND
 1897 root          1  20    0  9644K  1208K nanslp  0   0:03  0.00% cron
...

$ ps -ax |grep cron
 1897  ??  Is      0:03.16 /usr/sbin/cron -s
62278   1  S+      0:00.01 grep cron
$ ps -a |grep cron
62337   1  S+   0:00.00 grep cron
$ ps -aux |grep cron

man ps
    -x      When displaying processes matched by other options, include pro-
             cesses which do not have a controlling terminal.
