   I tried this with someone else's PID number and it complains to me

   More ideas?

Just as it should do. To call $GETJPI to get information about a process
owned by another person requires either GROUP privilege (if they are in the
same UIC group) or WORLD privilege.

Ask you system manager for SETPRV? If that doesn't work then you could
reconstruct the CSID from the top bits of the PID and use F$GETSYI to give
you the node name. I posted (to comp.os.vms) the DCL to do this in the last
week of September but I no longer have a copy. You could search the
archives for it or work out the details yourself. It only takes a couple of
lines. Neil :-)

Well, the original poster didn't suffer from your inadequacy, because he was 
capable of doing a SHOW PROCESS/ID on someone else's process.

(Quick answer for you:)

1. $ SHOW SYS/CLUS to an output file
2. Read the output file and figure it out.

(And a question.)

If you don't have any privs, then how did you get this PID without 
knowing the node name?  And what do you think you're going to
accomplish now that you have the node name?
