I'm kinda new to solaris 10 and there's something I'm curious about. We use solaris 10 on one of our FTP servers. There are numerous active connections to our FTP daemon (WU-FTPD), but I don't see any in.ftpd processes using 'ps -ef'. However, I do see processes listed in prstat and connections in netstat. Why do in.ftpd processes no longer appear in 'ps'?

That's odd, when I connect via FTP to my Solaris 10 box I get an in.ftpd, and then when I disconnect it's gone:
[tt]$ ps -ef | grep ftp

anni 1964 1958 0 09:48:43 pts/2 0:00 grep ftp
$ ps -ef | grep ftp
anni 1966 1958 0 09:48:54 pts/2 0:00 grep ftp
