[BProc] Access to /proc/<pid>/exe

[William H. <wd...@sg...>]

Erik (or whomever else might know the answer to this),

I'm trying to access, from my master node, the /proc/<pid>/exe file for a
process running on a slave node. This doesn't appear to work. For example:

% file /proc/21053/exe
/proc/21053/exe: unreadable symlink (No such file or directory).

My assumption would be that something in the virtualization and migration
process is breaking my ability to access this file. Is that correct? Any
idea why this doesn't work? Should it work? Is it because accessing this
file is referencing the ghost process (which has no image) rather than the
"real" process on the slave?

FYI... I'm using bproc-3.2.4 applied to the stock 2.4.20 kernel.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide me!
