Hi,
I have a question about determining the owner of a socket. By owner I
mean
the process that created it. If I am looking at a socket structure
via an
NKE, is there a way I can determine the process ID of the process that
generated it?
Nope. The original process might be long gone by the time you want to
find out, so it's kind of a pointless exercise. The best you can do is
to determine the UID of the original process, which may not tell you
much.
What is it you want to achieve? In this limited context, anyway :-}.
Regards,
Justin
