Is a certain process running your CPU right into the ground? How do you find said process without picking your way through the ps aux results? With this command:
ps -e -o pcpu,cpu,nice,state,cputime,args --sort pcpu | sed '/^ 0.0 /d'
…at which point you can kill it with sudo kill -9.
To get a list of all running processes, enter the command “ps auxw”. You might also want to try using “ps auxf” (or “ps auxfw” if the lines get truncated) – this prints everything in a nice tree format that may give you a better understanding of how and why things are running.
To get a complete listing of all listening network services using netstat, enter: netstat -altpu
You can also get similar information using lsof by entering: lsof -i | egrep -i ‘LISTEN|UDP’
Use the software cd 1 of 2 to recover root password:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | boot cdrom -s from ok prompt mkdir /tmp/a mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /tmp/a cd /tmp/a/etc TERM=vt100; export TERM vi shadow |
Delete passwd entry (13 chars) in the line for root.
