Which perl script is running?

[lakecoder]

Hi folks,

Pardon the nub here. 10.5.5 Server running and Activity Monitor tells me there’s a perl script running under root. Parent process is launchd. Is there a way using launchctl or other to tell me exactly [i]which[/i] perl script is running here?

Paranoid minds want to know.

Thanks!

Thanks! I’d forgotten that one.

The ‘culprit’ is jabber – a.k.a. iChat Server 🙂

Last week I saw what appeared to be a renegade perl script saturate my outbound net connection and so I feel the need to be very familiar with everything running on my Xserve.
