Hi All, Can anyone help me with the script problem. I am wanting to find multiple proccess and then produce a true exit code if they are all there and a false if they are not. I have been looking into this but can find no easy way of doing this. I currently have this bit of code for testing. # ps -fe| awk '{print $8}' | egrep "test1" -e "test2" |echo $? This does not work as it will look for test1 and tehn test2 I need this stament but using test1 and test2. Any help would be great Paul
