Hi all<br />
<br />
OS: RHEL4<br />
<br />
Is there a way to change a forked process` name?<br />
<br />
I have seen this behavior by a lot of daemons, and a daemon is what I'm making.<br />
<br />
I have one main thread that listens for incoming connections, then spawns a child to deal with it. I would like the child to show up in TOP as <br />
<br />
mydaemon serving &lt;hostname&gt;<br />
<br />
Most I could find were some shady links on Google pertaining C programming.<br />
<br />
Good luck!<br />
