Re: {bb} Another column with a proc

["PAUL WILLIAMSON" <pwilliamson@mandtbank.com>]

If it is tcp-based application, you'll need to do a few things...

Determine the port
Depending on the BBNET machine, you could add it to /etc/services
Add it to bbdef.sh in the BBNETSVCS area
Add it to the bb-hosts file in the form of service:port
You may need to add the "s" option for silent.

This all assumes that it is tcp.  If it's udp, you're pretty much 
restricted to writing a local (client) test to do essentially a ps.

Not really, 
When you add any service after the '#' in bb-hosts, the page listing:
	 conn,cpu,disk,msgs,procs
will have a new column with that service, what I need is 
to add a column for one specific program that should be always
running,
lets say 'wumpusd':
  conn,cpu,disk,msgs,procs,wumpusd

If wumpusd had a listening socket the problem will be solved easy, 
adding the services in the bb-hosts, but how to do that when the
program
or programs don't ?
