Finding Running Process ID's On Linux Using Pidof
Another odd Linux command from the back of the closet. We're going to take a look at a quirky little command (The use of the term "quirky" is my personal bias creeping in ;) called "pidof" that you can, absolutely, find on RedHat ES versions 4 and up. It's probably on lots of other distro's, too, but I can only afford to muck with what's in the free-server-pool at any given moment. This command is actually very interesting and, given that RHEL3 boasts the "pgrep" command, I was quite surprised when I bumped into it. I'm not sure if it seemed contradictory or complementary; just unexpected.
