ps -ef command shows uidnumber instead of uid

807559Sep 5 2005 — edited Apr 6 2006

Hi, I configured pam to use Identity Server 6.0 in addition to the unix for login, session and account management. Every thing seems fine, exept one thing. The ps command is not working normally for the process owned by the user stored in the Identity server. It always shows the uidnumber of the user instead of the uid of the user. For instance, if I have a user with uid=testUser and uidnumber=8988, the ps -ef command will show something as

0008988 10719 10713 0 14:30:30 pts/6 0:00 -csh

instead of

testUser 10719 10713 0 14:30:30 pts/6 0:00 -csh

as in the normal case.

Could some experts give me some possible causes of the problem, configuration issues, code bugs, ...?

Thanks in advance!
