- Just as it should do. To call $GETJPI to get information about a process
- owned by another person requires either GROUP privilege (if they are in the
- same UIC group) or WORLD privilege.

- Ask you system manager for SETPRV? If that doesn't work then you could
- reconstruct the CSID from the top bits of the PID and use F$GETSYI to give
- you the node name. I posted (to comp.os.vms) the DCL to do this in the last
- week of September but I no longer have a copy. You could search the
- archives for it or work out the details yourself. It only takes a couple of
- lines. Neil :-)
