Hi there,
I was just logged in my headless audio server and wondered why ps won't display the normal username.
ps output:

The uid 1000 belongs to the standard user on the machine with the name audiodaemon. It's the user I use for logging into the machine remotely.
Why does ps only output the uid? It works fine for the mpd user and on my laptop machine it also prints the usernames.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Try combinations of ps aux and -eax (for example. Play around).

| Playing around doesn't help, the problem continues to exist. |
