[replying to list....]

Hi Christian,

Yeah, you're right, there's no init process in that list, is there.  
Ha.  Okay, maybe it's relevant that this is a "virtual dedicated server" 
environment.  Gee, I should have said that before!  Just didn't think of 
it at all.  That would explain the other "lot of missing processes" 
wouldn't it.

Um, so does this make problems for monit, and is there a way to work 
around those?

As for the kernel, I don't know exactly what's in there, because that 
level of administration is done by the VDS provider, not me.  And if UML 
is User Mode Linux, then I'm pretty sure the anser is "no."

Thanks,
Allen
