current linux kernels provide more than 15bit pids ( I think its 30 or 31bits). Not much more, but it makes it slightly more difficult.
Your "current" linux doesn't seem to be stable yet ;) I haven't seen pids wider than 15 bits on any production system :) Cheers, wp -- Wojciech Purczynski iSEC Security Research http://isec.pl/ _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
