> Is there a "truss" clone for FreeBSD? You can use "ktrace", which is obnoxious to use. Sean Eric Fagan has implemented a working "truss" that doesn't require all of the "dump file/undump file" crap. If you are tracking a problem that causes a machine crash, ktrace is pretty damn useless for finding the area of the code causing the crash because it doesn't provide sufficient feedback, and the data which would be useful after post-processing is lost in a kernel buffer when a crash occurs. I suggest contacting Sean directly. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
