Operating Systems HP-UX BOGGLED!! User information incorrect when viewing "ps" Process Status Post 302552950 by vbe on Tuesday 6th of September 2011 07:28:52 AM
Old 09-06-2011
I wonder if its not the display that has some corruption which could explain why you cant replicate on demand...
For this IMHO:
Code:
script 1 0 Aug 22 ? 0:01 <process_name>

is non sense since ps displays the uid in first position, so it looks more like over printing on the last line sort of stuff...
It does happen sometimes when some fancy program changes stty values... then when you get the prompt back you finish with an upset standard output - usually you notice nothing till you need vi, then when your trying to modify something important it seem vi gone bezeurk!
Have you tried "stty sane" or the resize command? (In case you were in xterm and changed its size and something did not follow...)

"1 user" or "10 users") v operating system version and build date (uname -v) OPTIONS
noesc Turns off escape code parsing. issue=issue-file-name The file to output if not using the default. MODULE TYPES PROVIDED
Only the auth module type is provided. RETURN VALUES
PAM_BUF_ERR Memory buffer error. PAM_IGNORE The prompt was already changed. PAM_SERVICE_ERR A service module error occurred. PAM_SUCCESS The new prompt was set successfully. EXAMPLES
Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/login to set the user specific issue at login: auth optional pam_issue.so issue=/etc/issue SEE ALSO
