I do remember watch now! Have not used it in quite some time. I run mostly FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris nowadays and didn't even miss it (until now!)...

You could try downloading it (http://procps.sourceforge.net/) and compiling for your architecture.
Even though I am root on this machine, I am not allowed to install any software on it. This is a mission critical system (almost the entire carbranche in The Netherlands would collapse if anything happened to it!).
Getting permission to install additional software on it would require a lot of people to agree with it and I don't think that will happen in the near future.

Thanks for the reply!
