When I attempt to run the command ps
with the flags/switches/options aux
I get the following message. If I run the command without grep, no message is displayed. What am I doing wrong?
ps -aux | grep 'skype'
Warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'?
See http://procps.sf.net/faq.html
-u username
switch selects processes belonging to username, sops -upeanuts
would select every process belonging to the user peanuts. – Dr Kitty Feb 29 '12 at 3:31
