Show all processes in FreeBSD

    Those who are familiar with the Linux distributions mostly use ps -ef to find all processes that are running. If you log on to a FreeBSD machine and try the same; you will only see processes started by you.

    To see all processes running on FreeBSD the best option is to use ps -auxww.

  2. I was familiar with getting the full process list on other Unix flavors, but was struggling with doing so on FreeBSD. Thanks for the tip.
