View Full Version : PS shows 101 as UID for teamspeak2 server...

The ps command (ps -ef) shows the process UID as 101:

101 14264 23261 0 20:41 tty1 00:00:00 /opt/teamspeak2-server

I expected the UID column would show the username (teamspeak2) not the userid (101). The username shows in other processes dhcp, named, root even shows as root! :)

Teamspeak2 server (2.20.1) was emerged from portage.
gentoo (2.6.13).

User teamspeak2 is defined in /etc/passwd like this:
teamspeak2:x:101:100:added by portage for teamspeak2-server-bin:/dev/null:/bin/false

I have seen this before when users are not defined correctly to the system, but I see no problem in /etc/passwd. ls -la on files shows usernames and group correctly.

Other than that it is working fine, this just has me scratching my head.
