Hi
I'm logged in at the moment, how do I find my process id for the shell I'm in, given that there are loads of other shells aswell. I'm using bash?
Thanks Dan
Hi,
What about ps -ef | grep -i bash ? If you get something like this, then you can find out the process id of all the shells.
$ ps -ef | grep -i bash
2872 2699 0 10:38 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /etc/gdm/Xsession gnome-session 2895 2699 0 10:38 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent /bin/sh -c exec -l /bin/bash -c "gnome-session" 4766 4763 1 11:07 pts/1 00:00:00 bash 4808 4763 1 11:07 pts/2 00:00:00 bash 4818 4763 1 11:07 pts/3 00:00:00 bash 4827 4763 1 11:07 pts/4 00:00:00 bash 4838 4763 1 11:07 pts/5 00:00:00 bash 4977 4766 0 11:07 pts/1 00:00:00 grep -i bash
Hope that was what you were looking for.
