how many users?

[Richard D. Williams]

Ernie,

What a simple solution.
I do not know if it is "exactly" how fp does it, but it would give me a 
very close number.

Here is the script:

rm -f /tmp/fpnum.txt
ps -ef | grep dclerk >> /tmp/fpnum.txt
ps -ef | grep rclerk >> /tmp/fpnum.txt
ps -ef | grep rreport >> /tmp/fpnum.txt
ps -e f | grep dreport >> /tmp/fpmun.txt
wc -l /tmp/fpnum.txt | awk {' print $1 }'

This can now be set into a script /usr/local/bin/count_fpusers and used 
inside a filepro program as a user command.

user uniq =  /usr/local/bin/count_fpusers;n(4,.0)=uniq;close uniq;msgbox n

Wow. Senior moment. I went to write this script and found I had already 
figured this out years ago.

Here is the script:

DATE="`date '+%m/%d/%y|%H:%M:%S'`"
ps -ef | grep clerk > /tmp/FPUSERS.txt
ps -ef | grep report >> /tmp/FPUSERS.txt
FPUSERS="`cat /tmp/FPUSERS.txt | wc -l`"
echo "$DATE|$FPUSERS|" >> /appl/LOG_FPUSERS

I use this to keep a running log of the number of users every 10 mins..

The new script above still will work as needed within any filepro program.

Thanks for the help.
