Lo ppl, 
 
how to i get the pid of a process i start in a shellscript? 
 
The Variables $$ / $PID are not really of use. What i would like to have, is
some sort 
of command with has the return value of another startet script. 
 
The background: i try to write a rc.d script for ftpd, and i need the PID to
stop it 
again. 
 
Thx!
