I using sunos 4.1.2.3 and I'm after getting access to
the process information for a running process. By info
I mean processor time used, command running, mem in use, etc.
The sort of thing that ps returns. I think it should be 
possible through ptrace but this only terminates the process
I attach to.

On Unix SVR4 I could do this by doing an ioctrl on a process file
in the proc virtual file system. But under sunos such nicetys are
absent.

Please mail me any sujestions.

Thanks
