LINUX SCRIPT FOR GETING THE NEWSET PID

[santosh]

hi the follwing script will display all the PID's

ps -ef | grep "$1" | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'

but i want a script which displays only the newest PID generated.

[santosh]

and does some one know to run the same script using php

[dragoncity99]

U can try to use program execution functions in php such as

exec(); to make it run on ur webserver.

Prototype for exec()

exec(string command [ array result[, int return value]])

For example:

exec("ls -la");
