The linux kernel limits the length of data reported in that line to something shorter than your name. If you go look in the status file for your particular process you'll find a truncated name (and you can use that name instead of your full name to solve your problem). (eg, I created a script called "mysuperlongprocessnameisreallycool" and linux truncated it to: "mysuperlongproc") -- Wes Hardaker Cobham Analytic Solutions ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list [email protected] Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users
