Child Process Name

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi ,

I want to find out the child process name given its PID. I have used the ps command but it displays the parent process name against child PID.

Is there any way to find out name of child program executing under any parent program?

uv04:/home/vbe $ ps -ef|grep 2334736
