RE: OT: fuser know how

Command fuser identifies the processes using a file or a file structure. You have to provide the file or file structure name as an argument. Following is an example that shows my shell (ksh) is using my home directory (from AIX system).

ked /home/ked => fuser /home/ked
/home/ked: 51816c   

ked /home/ked => ps -ef | grep 51816

 ked 51816 25710   1 08:46:23  pts/1  0:00 -ksh      
 ked 67482 51816   8 08:47:02  pts/1  0:00 ps -ef 
 ked 71864 51816   0 08:47:02  pts/1  0:00 grep 51816
