Hi,

Originally question,

>We have a lot of PC's running a client/server application over SQL-Retriver
>and each PC starts a process on the server. Sometimes we need to kill such a
>process but we don't know which one to kill because they have the same name.
>Is there any way to trace a process to see from which PC it's connect too ?.

Thanks to,

who gives me the solution.

Install the program lsof to list openfiles for a process.
e.g,

# lsof -n|grep 'process'

from this a can see if there is a open filedescripter between the client and
the server for a process.

lsof can be found at vic.cc.purdue.edu in pub/tools/unix/lsof
and probably from gatekeeper.dec.com

Regards,
